<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Orfew, post: 4666795, member: 74968&quot;]For the past few months I have been trying to get more of the rare denarii of Domitian&#039;s first year as Augustus. There are some intriguing mystteries surrounding these coins and I find them very interesting. While this coin is considered rare it is not extremely rare. Still when an example comes to market I like to have a look at it.</p><p><br /></p><p>The first photo is the first example I bought some time ago. i have been however looking for an upgrade for some time. While this coin is nowhere near an ef I still like it very much. Not only is it better than my first example but it has 2 other things going for it. First, I love this reverse for Domitian. Secondly, I think the portrait is quite charming. For these reasons bidding on this coin was a no brainer.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also I like that the obverses are from different dies.</p><p><br /></p><p>Please post your coins that you have upgraded.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1150781[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]1150783[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Domitian, Denarius, 81 Rome (Group 1)</p><p>(18mm 3.36g)</p><p>Obv: Laureate head of Domitian right., IMP CAESAR DOMITIANVS AVG </p><p>Rev: Dolphin coiled around anchor.,</p><p>RIC: 2 (R); BMC 3 RSC 551</p><p>Purchased from Savoca 81st Blue auction July 26, 2020 Lot 315[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
