    Those are two great lookin' coins, ro (very cool additions)

    Sadly, I don't own any Marcus Aurelius dupondii examples (*sigh*)

    You right Chris. Mars looks like he hasn't been working out much lately. In fact, he kinda looks like me.

    No Dupondius' --or even Provincials-- of M A for me, just a few sestertius and a denarius...

    But I love yours 'ro' and those the others have posted.

    I guess we're all prone to a little 'happy fat' as the years roll by, even Mars;)
