<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Numisnewbiest, post: 6368551, member: 99613&quot;]I haven&#039;t received this yet, but it&#039;s on its way, so I&#039;m calling it mine enough to post it as such. For me, it fits this thread perfectly, as it&#039;s certainly far from being high grade, but for me it&#039;s exactly what I like in a coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>My primary interest is in a realistic portrait first. I don&#039;t care about wear, as long as there is enough of the portrait there. Also, for me, it has to be realistic, warts and all, with realistic proportions, etc. If a good portrait is there, I then like a readable and complete legend, or at least as far as the emperor&#039;s name. The reverse? I don&#039;t care at all - it could be worn smooth and I wouldn&#039;t care, if the obverse has a well-struck realistic and proportionate portrait and good legend. Lastly, a pleasing tone.</p><p><br /></p><p>So, for me, this coin hits all three - a portrait I really like, a complete legend, and a tone I really like as well. Worn and cruddy, and I love it just as it is! </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1252101[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
