[QUOTE="JBGood, post: 2045667, member: 38987"][ATTACH=full]374538[/ATTACH] 4 coins of course, from top left: Commodus, Vespasian, Antoninus Pius and in the bottom left corner, Tiberius. The Commodus has been waxed as a conservation precaution but I really don't like the look or the feel of it. It also makes it difficult to photo. I complained and the vendor graciously offered to take it back, but I decided to keep it. I like the CC motif and he gives me discounts fairly regularly. I'm not trying to rekindle the wax on/wax off discussion but I will say I'm not a wax guy. I'm going to take on BD by using safe-coinage: always buy from a reputable dealer and always inspect for green stuff.[/QUOTE]
