[QUOTE="GregH, post: 2751668, member: 75936"]I'm looking for a Postumus upgrade, and i think the denomination that best represents him is one of those magnificent double sestertii that he minted. I have narrowed my search down to these two candidates: A: [IMG]https://images.vcoins.com/product_image/48/P/6/Px7W6FHzMgR8k5rEWr4y2maYdJ9c3t.jpg[/IMG] B: [IMG]https://images.vcoins.com/product_image/48/H/6/He5Kt6mBoD7gp4pC3K2c34xSkQ8w9C.jpg[/IMG] Both have their problems. Both have minor pitting on the reverse side. Like you have one in your collection which is problem-free! I like the portrait better on the first, but love the reverse galley on the second. The second is quite a bit more expensive than the first. But i am a portrait collector, so do i care about the reverses? What do you think? Pull the trigger on A or B?[/QUOTE]
