<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Orielensis, post: 8085754, member: 96898&quot;]That is a terrific set of coins! As a medieval collector, I especially like the crusader denier from the Duchy of Athens. The eastern Severus Alexander denarius is a very beautiful coin, even when not considering the price. Also, thanks for linking your write-ups.
