<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gsimonel, post: 3047622, member: 82549&quot;]Never thought I would be able to own a Pupienus, but I won this coin in a recent CNG auction. It came in a lot of 13 silver denarii and antoniniani. The description listed a Pupienus as among the coins in the lot and described the overall condition of the coins as &quot;Average Fine to Very Fine.&quot; But the coin was buried in the photo. Not sure why they did that since it&#039;s in pretty nice shape, but I decided to take a chance on it. I will probably end up selling the other coins on eBay and, hopefully, end up spending around $150-$200 for this coin, which is quite a bargain in my opinion:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]761832[/ATTACH] </p><p>AR denarius</p><p>Rome mint, 4/238-6/238</p><p>RIC 5</p><p>Obv: IMP C M CLOD PVPIENVS AVG</p><p>Rev: P M TR P COS II P P - Emperor, togate, standing, facing left, holding caduceus in right hand and scepter in left.</p><p>19 mm, 3.3g.</p><p><br /></p><p>The only downside is that when I ask people if they want to see my new coin, I get the rudest, most vulgar comments imaginable. I guess they&#039;re just jealous. Or am I pronouncing the name wrong?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
