    Great coin. I always learn something from your "Bing" posts. This one is no different. Initially I wondered why you bought this coin, it seems like its in a condition below what you normally get as far as RR are concerned. I suppose the back ground info, the coin motif and Sulla are the reason, making a trifecta of awesome. Nice coin. :yes:
