[QUOTE="cmezner, post: 3432465, member: 87809"]Don't have yet a DICT PERPETVO coin, hopefully I will be lucky some day and win one, that would really be something:) But I have a Julius Caesar denarius - almost all my coins were my dad's, so unfortunately I don't have a story about them to share. This denarius was struck on a larger flan or maybe with a smaller die? the portrait is quite nice but the reverse is really, really off-center - and my pictures are definitely not good...:( maybe one can see better the P crescent M on the second obverse picture. 19 mm, 3.53 g; Rome, February-March 44 BC, L. Aemilius Buca, moneyer Ref.: Crawford 480/4; CRI 102; Sydenham 1060; Ob.: CAESAR•IM - P crescent M laureate head of Caesar right; Rev.: L•AEMILIVS BVC(A) Venus Victrix standing left, holding winged Victory in outstretched right hand and scepter in left [ATTACH=full]911313[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]911314[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]911316[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
