<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 3181798, member: 19463&quot;]On CT we are inundated with coins of Galba, Otho, Vitellius and Caligula.&nbsp; I have posted two Pescennius Niger coins which brought yawns and no rush out to buy 193 AD sets.&nbsp; I believe Galba and Caligula deserve the attention they get.&nbsp; So do the boys of 193.&nbsp; Their coins are &#039;exorbitantly pricey&#039; in higher grades just like those of the rarities from the twelve.&nbsp; There are fewer coins but next to no demand at least from our membership.&nbsp; Who reading this now has ever posted a Pescennius Niger?&nbsp; I suspect we have had as many coins of the Didius Julianus wife and daughter from our collectors of Roman women as we have from Didius himself.&nbsp; Most of our Pertinax posts have been questions of authenticity rather than about the coins as types or history.&nbsp; I do believe that being in Suetonius really does make a difference.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
