[QUOTE="Gam3rBlake, post: 8001795, member: 115909"]Yeah for sure that’s a beautiful antoninianus. :) I just stick with denarii because that’s what I collect and my goal is to collect 1 denarius of every Emperor of the Roman Empire from Augustus to the end of the denarius which I believe is Phillip I. Mostly because the denarius goes back to the Roman Republic and by the time the antoninianus was first minted all my favorite Emperor’s were long dead. Unfortunately for me some Emperors like Caligula & Phillip I will be nearly impossible to purchase even in poor condition but I’d like to see how many I can get. When I get as far as I can go I might start collecting the wives of the Emperors or move into medieval coinage. I’ve always thought medieval coinage looks so cool. That’s still quite a while away though. My immediate goal is to try to get Augustus & Tiberius. Fortunately even though they are expensive they aren’t unrealistically expensive in XF grade like Caligula is in any grade.[/QUOTE]
