[QUOTE="AncientJoe, post: 1988804, member: 44357"]Welcome to the forum, and congratulations on your beautiful sestertius! Your images show much more "character" to the coin than NAC's - it looks like it is indeed very beautiful in hand. I have only a few sestertii, as I've worked to acquire some tougher types first (Colosseum sestertius/Port of Ostia) but there are an incredible number of appealing, aesthetic sestertii. Aurei and denarii are great but there isn't anything quite like holding a heavy sestertius in your hand! I'm sure you've seen it but this upcoming NAC sale of the JDL collection has an impressive group of sestertii. Prices are sure to be strong but many of the coins are gorgeous. Some other members have extensive bronze collections as well. I hope you post a thread of your other coins soon![/QUOTE]
