    Both are nice but the Galba is fantastic (since I favor First Century BC/AD). Congratulations!

    Drachm. I wanted a life time coin that was in existence when he was. For me its the purpose of collecting. Things that were there, contemporary with the person on the coin.

    Coingratulations. I don't have Galba in my Twelve, yet. He's on the "to-do" list.

    Galba was one of those that the price was good for the quality of the coin. A very fair price IMO. Not cheap but fair. I saw a lot of Galba denarius coins that were not half as good for 200 more. Its been sitting in my cart for a bit now. I decided to pull the trigger. I still need a Julius and Otho. Otho not so bad, Julius that is a different story.
