<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DonnaML, post: 4450897, member: 110350&quot;]These two are not the same exact coin-type, but -- given my general one-coin-per-emperor buying philosophy, plus the fact that the reverse designs are essentially identical -- I almost certainly would not have bought the first of these Domitians if I had remembered that I had already had the second one since back in the 1980s/early 1990s.&nbsp; Even though I&#039;m actually happy I bought it, because it&#039;s a very much nicer coin, I probably would have bought one from a different emperor (or at least with a different reverse) instead.</p><p><br /></p><p>Domitian (son of Vespasian) AR Denarius 88-89 AD.
