    My favourite new coin of 2016 is this siliqua of Constantius II, RIC VIII. Arles 261, FER 1030. It is my favourite coin because it was 'gifted' to me by a well-known (and liked) member, who I count among my 'friends'. (I shall not embarrass him further.) Thank-you again.
    It is also my favourite coin because it was my first Siliqua. You don't know what they are like until you hold one in your hand. (I have now bought another, with more to come.)

    Not a bad coin at all.
    The wear and tear gives it a personality.

    Siliqua... cool denomination. Always good. I do not really collect from this Era, but I HAD to have ONE Siliqua! Wonderful Gift to you!
