<p>[QUOTE=&quot;benhur767, post: 3023707, member: 36818&quot;]Cool coins. I like the green patina on Roman Collector&#039;s coin, and the graceful figure on the reverse of Doug&#039;s second. Here&#039;s my only Marcianopolis:</p><p><b>[ATTACH=full]752346[/ATTACH] </b></p><p><b>Elagabalus and Julia Maesa.</b> Moesia Inferior, Marcianopolis, minted under Legate (Governor) Julius Antonius Seleucus, ca. 220-221 CE.
