<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 1804928, member: 19463&quot;]These are just nice examples of coins I did not have.&nbsp; Some are better than others and some cost a bit more than others but most were bought just because I am addicted to such things and buy them when I see one that strikes my fancy at a show.&nbsp; Most look better in hand (particularly the Numerian) so I will need to reshoot them in the five months before I attend another coin show.&nbsp; &nbsp; Five months is a long time for me to rely just on mail order.&nbsp; As usual on such purchases I have buyer&#039;s remorse about half of them but still see some good points about each other than the fact that they were types I did not have. </p><p><br /></p><p>Caracalla and Julia Domna AE of Marcianopolis but her name off flan.&nbsp; I bought this in spite of the wear for the bold reverse legends and the long form obverse spelling out Augustus rather than Sebastos.&nbsp; </p><p>[ATTACH=full]293947[/ATTACH] </p><p>Victorinus Cologne mint with obverse legend including PIAV but barely on flan (already needs upgrading)</p><p>[ATTACH=full]293948[/ATTACH] </p><p>Probus Rome mint with temple - rough but large flan (already needs upgrading)</p><p>[ATTACH=full]293949[/ATTACH] </p><p>Numerian as Augustus Lugdunum mint&nbsp; - photo makes it look rougher than in hand - the obverse is really nice looking in hand (needs rephotographing)</p><p>[ATTACH=full]293950[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
