<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jamesicus, post: 4828242, member: 14873&quot;]Thank you [USER=101013]@Limes[/USER]. I wrote the description in my version of a 16th century Chancery cursive hand that I was actually not very fond of and have seldom used since. That was about thirty years ago - I no longer own the coin, and haven’t for many years, but this was the only photo I could find of it in my archives. It was part of a failed project of mine to make a more attractive (eye catching) display of featured coins at a local coin show. It didn’t work very well - it took too long to make up the cards and they took up too much space:</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://www.cointalk.com/attachments/f58ad1ec-a7f2-40da-b6b8-c114e637f1b0-jpeg.1162147/" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>To the coin: I have always liked this Dupondius very much and was hoping CT members here would post their examples of it. I love to see coins that show evidence of circulation and use (naturally patinated) - to me they are true historical artifacts - if I want to see photos of pristine (uncirculated) examples I can view plates in books.</p><p><br /></p><p>Doug has posted an example that has a much nicer depiction of the quadriga with Germanicus than mine.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
