<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2190581, member: 19463&quot;]We might also mention that Martin&#039;s first coin (IVLIA AVGVSTA / VENVS FELIX) is the most common of all Alexandria denarii but still the lesat recognized by non-specialists.&nbsp; RIC and BMC listed Alexandria coins but missed the type making the assumption that the mint closed before the obverse legend changed.&nbsp; I used to buy them whenever I could and then realized that they were common at least in low grade.&nbsp; Martin&#039;s is far above average.&nbsp; I overreacted and stopped buying them.&nbsp; All Alexandria denarii are rare compared to other mints.&nbsp; Some are just rare while a few are known from only a specimen or two.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
