    I would take this coin if the price is right. I love the reverse. If that is a hole you pointed out on the obverse, where does it show on the reverse? I don't see anything.

    Many people would buy that and resell dishonestly neglecting to mention the problem. I consider it a beautiful coin but have no idea on price. $50? 1/4 what it would go for without the hole?

    $9 and a lot uglier on a much more common ruler but still a great reverse:

    $18 with natural fill dirt and a lot of legend for a Trebonianus Gallus:

    Do these two mean the coins were $9 each and better dirt was worth an additional $9? The Pius is worth a lot more.

    the reverse looks just like a Brittania!

    did you pick that coin up ro? i wouldn't have guess it plugged by the picture, looks pretty good.

    if the price is right, i'd take it for sure.

    I'll say it again. If this coin's price seems OK to you,you should buy it. It's a nice coin. The price I, or anyone else would pay is inconsequential. It's the worth to you that matters.
