<p>[QUOTE="MarcusAntonius, post: 7606133, member: 119121"]Would like to add my two cents: do like this post 'Anyone want to share their sestercii'. The day before did I post a similar thread with the request to come forward for any 'Romulus and Remus' type coin. It was amazing to see how many people I reached with this post</p><p><br /></p><p>Did see so many amazing Sestercii here by other collectors, once you have a nice and/or unique example in your hand you will feel impressed, the weight, the size, the legends, the material and all the details which the artist creating the die did try to assemble with so much LOVE and DEVOTION. It's just all about emotion, these Sestercii do still awake emotion with people. Something you will only realize once you have the opportunity to have one astonishing example in your hand, it does make you feel humble: how could people without laser technique create a die (at reverse) so perfect, so full of life, so realistic with such less advanced tools. Feel a deep admiration and respect for those who did create the dies and minted these coins 20 centuries ago.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
