<p>[QUOTE="Teddydogno1, post: 1967265, member: 71226"]Continuing awesome info, guys. Those two were among the first couple that caught my eye and were put into a "wishlist". They were also among the least expensive. On the first one (Caracalla), I like the design but recognized that that is had some issues with cleaning and surface. I also like the design of the 2nd one but also saw that it was pretty "soft" looking and grainy. Now that I know what it is called, though...</p><p><br /></p><p>Last night I was "shopping" a couple of sites with my daughter (7) and we really liked the design on several of the older Republic coins (like the Quadriga reverse) and some of the Greek with animals. (like this one <a href="https://www.vcoins.com/en/stores/incitatus_coins/79/product/l_cornelius_scipio_asiagenus_greatgrandson_of_scipio_africanus_ar_silver_serratus_denarius_head_of_jupiter_jupiter_in_quadriga/456482/Default.aspx" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.vcoins.com/en/stores/incitatus_coins/79/product/l_cornelius_scipio_asiagenus_greatgrandson_of_scipio_africanus_ar_silver_serratus_denarius_head_of_jupiter_jupiter_in_quadriga/456482/Default.aspx" rel="nofollow">https://www.vcoins.com/en/stores/incitatus_coins/79/product/l_cornelius_scipio_asiagenus_greatgrandson_of_scipio_africanus_ar_silver_serratus_denarius_head_of_jupiter_jupiter_in_quadriga/456482/Default.aspx</a>) .</p><p><br /></p><p>I apologize if I made it seem like I was asking people to shop for me...
