    Very nice. I was looking for a tet to represent Macrinus in my collection, but the denarius had me at "hello". I still need to find a nice tet like yours.

    Nice Macrinus! Mine is a short beard, but not quite as short as Doug's first one, I think.

    PS: If anyone's interested, I'm selling my old Macrinus (an Antioch provincial) on eBay, as well as a couple of other bits and pieces. You'll likely get it for a better price than a real dealer, and I'm not in it for profit, so you're welcome to consider:

    Does it qualify as "long" ? I'd say mid long
