<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Orfew, post: 3196844, member: 74968&quot;]I have seen all of these great coins on this forum with a hippo on the reverse. I thought it was about time that I had one so I just bought one in Today&#039;s Naville sale. It does not hurt that it is ex: Dattari and is a plate coin. I also really like the bust of tiberius on the obverse. It will be an interesting addition to my 12 Caesars collection.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Please post your coins with Hippos or other interesting animals, or coins of Tiberius.</p><p><br /></p><p>Egypt, Alexandria.
