also got nicer shot (one on top) of this one of Constans I'd like to share.

 

Looks really nice! Good shot, well taken.

 

I agree, nice shots!

Excellent detail on those. Are you buying this from a shop or on line?

 

Nice additions as usual.

 

Thanks I got them localy.

 

Nice... the detail on the two soldiers on the reverse of the constans is excellent!

It's great to support your local coin shop.
I wish my coin shop would carry more Roman coins, they have decent Late Roman Bronzes bin to pick through at $10 each, sometimes one finds a winner amongst them, but most aren't very good at all, and the few silver Denarii or Antoninianii they do have, are quite overpriced most of the time.

Great additions Randy. The new pic of that Constans really shows off how beautiful a coin she is.
