[QUOTE="bcuda, post: 3670832, member: 105389"]I had about 30 years ago a really nice AS of Calligula with nice green patina that I loved I acquired it from another fellow metal detector while I was in Spain. Upon return to the U.S.A. and needing money I sold it and some others to an Ancient coin dealer in San Antonio TX sometime in 1991. Long story short I have always had that feeling (you know the feeling) of wishing I never sold it. So I bought one a few weeks ago and another one recently and am trying to decide witch one is the keeper for my collection. Just wondering what you all think? Also the first one has the older looking Caligula but was minted earlier 37-38 AD in His reign and the younger looking portrait is from 39-40 AD later in His reign. #1 RIC38 [ATTACH=full]986670[/ATTACH] #2 RIC 47 [ATTACH=full]986673[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
