<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Curtisimo, post: 24735859, member: 83845&quot;]Nice addition [USER=26430]@Curtis[/USER] ! I haven’t bought too many duplicates. One of the only times I ever did I kept the one with a lower grade because of the provenance and gave the one that most would probably prefer to a friend in a gift exchange. I’ve already posted this coin a bunch so I’ll post something different.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is a Commodus that I recently found a 2007 provenance for. Not a very old provenance but I still thought it was neat.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1582357[/ATTACH] </p><p>Roman Empire</p><p>Commodus under Marcus Aurelius</p><p>AE Sestertius, Rome mint, struck ca.
