<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rrdenarius, post: 3984044, member: 75525&quot;]I agree with most of what is said above. The coins are common late Roman bronze coins. If you are asking, can you make money buying them at $20. The answer is no.</p><p>If you are looking to form a small &amp; inexpensive collection of coins that are 1800 years old, a few of these would be a good start. Buy only one per ruler. Pick coins in the best condition for each ruler: details on both the obverse and reverse, letters you can read and coins that look interesting to you (see one that spoke to me below). </p><p>Before you spend a lot, find a book or web site on Roman Imperial coins. Handbook of Roman Imperial Coins by Van Meter is good and normally inexpensive on line.</p><p><br /></p><p>I bought this one on line for $80 because I wanted the scale on the reverse. I have bought others is similar condition at coin shows for $10 - $20.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1049070[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
