<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2014765, member: 19463&quot;]Perhaps I should point out that Martin and I have concentrated on the Eastern mint denarii of Septimius.&nbsp; Some people also collect his Rome mint coins which are very different.&nbsp; There are even some Rome coins that are both rare and interesting and much more easily available in super high grades.&nbsp; In addition to the Eastern coins, I do collect Rome coins of the first years of his reign including the popular legionary series honoring the legions by number that supported him in the very first days of his bid for power.&nbsp; Missing numbers either hesitated (bad choice) or supported the other candidates for the purple (really, really bad choice).&nbsp; Septimius had many good points but I don&#039;t think most people thought of him as a laid back, nice guy. </p><p><br /></p><p>A couple coins of 193 AD from Rome:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]363518[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]363519[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
