I originally purchased it in 2006 from Beast Coins and later sold it to Forvm in 2009 along with a dozen other Domitian denarii. A few months later I had a change of heart and bought this beauty back, along with two other coins from the group. Oh, how I wish I had never sold them! At the time I wanted to concentrate only on the silver of Vespasian, Titus, and Domitian as Caesar. It wasn&#039;t long before I saw the error of my ways.</p><p><br /></p><p>I couldn&#039;t imagine my collection today without the superb coins of Domitian as Augustus![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
