[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 2744452, member: 19463"]I like Clodius Albinus - fine looking fellow. Martin showed what I consider the top items. Rome mint 193 AD with COS but NOT COS II - This obverse die is common and unusual for the poor treatment of the eye rolled up. Many you will find with the PROVID AVG COS reverse will use it. [ATTACH=full]627166[/ATTACH] Rome denarius Aesculapius with COS II so 194 AD [ATTACH=full]627147[/ATTACH] Rome Felicitas - This is the type issued at Alexandria but they come from Rome also. [ATTACH=full]627148[/ATTACH] Alexandria Felicitas - right side obverse legend ALBIN CAES [ATTACH=full]627149[/ATTACH] right side obverse legend TALBIN CAES [ATTACH=full]627150[/ATTACH] right side obverse legend BIN CAES [ATTACH=full]627151[/ATTACH] AE denarius (fourree core) with portrait that looks too much like Septimius and has a reverse suitable for Commodus [ATTACH=full]627153[/ATTACH] As Augustus with serious die clash which broke the reverse die leaving a cud. The reverse type is GEN LVG like the one Martin showed. [ATTACH=full]627155[/ATTACH] There are nice sestertii portraits but many are not well struck overall. [ATTACH=full]627172[/ATTACH] The rarity I'd like to add would be a Provincial. They are not common in any way but the twin portraits facing with Septimius and Albinus is on my want list.
