<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Valentinian, post: 2742757, member: 44316&quot;][USER=76194]@Sallent[/USER], the OP coin is excellent and historical. A &quot;hefty chunk of bronze&quot; is always welcome. Most Roman coin collectors collect silver, but put a denarius alongside a sestertius in similar condition and I wonder how many collectors or non-collectors would prefer the sestertius because it is so big and impressive.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]626428[/ATTACH] </p><p>Sestertius.
