[QUOTE="hotwheelsearl, post: 4741226, member: 75143"]I'm the kind of collector who doesnt really need multiple copies of one emperor. I try to keep upgrading an emperor until I reach a point that I'm pleased with. For $10, I just picked up this incredible Constantius Gallus large module FTR. This blows my previous one out of the water and I doubt I'll ever get another C-Gall again after this glorious specimen. Former: [ATTACH=full]1159053[/ATTACH] A ragged flan, but a decent large size. it was suitable for a while but I knew that I needed a better one. 21mm RIC VIII Thessalonica 137A, TSA I got "side-grade" where the coin is better in some ways but worse in other ways. It had a better flan and was larger, but worse details. Still not good enough. [ATTACH=full]1159055[/ATTACH] 23x20mm Cyzicus RIC VIII 94 New: [ATTACH=full]1159054[/ATTACH] 21mm Mintmark SMNS unlisted in Wildwinds. Possibly Nicomedia RIC VIII 85. Incredible, just incredible. A bit of weak strike on the soldier's head, but the rest of it is just glorious. I especially like the barbarian's lobster claws! he sort of looks like a skinny Michelin man too.
