    rr and caesar and aug and anthony 001.JPG rr and caesar and aug and anthony 002.JPG DSCF0358.JPG DSCF0359.JPG I have a few small types of Augustus (Quadrants) and a Marc Anthony/Octavian denarius and a low-grade dupondius...so I'm always looking to upgrade one more coin type...but my other bidding always seems to push that aside...right now I'm maxed out on my bidding, so it has to wait a bit longer...

    Love that Mark Anthony/Octavian denarius. Does it need a foster home?
