<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ken454, post: 3447218, member: 56575&quot;]i&#039;ve always been reluctant to order from &quot;across the pond&quot; for fear of never seeing the coins ordered. but everytime i window shop on Vcoins i see a lot of coins i like cant order because they are from &quot;over there&quot;. so i decided to give it a try and ordered 2 cheaper coins from a dealer in spain. well i must say i was impressed and surprised. i placed the order on march 25 and the coins were in my mail today. i was mildly shocked as i was not expecting the package for at least a few weeks. i will definitely be shopping at this dealer in the future. </p><p>&nbsp; these coins were chosen for a few reasons, price being number 1 in case i never received them i wouldn&#039;t lose much, an emperor and empress i dont have, i dont believe i have this denomination, they are&nbsp; Æ As, (can someone tell me exactly what Æ As is?) </p><p>i like the galley reverse, and the empress profile, i assume these are kinda low quality coins, but i like em, and the experimental order from overseas was a success..[ATTACH=full]915281[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]915282[/ATTACH]</p><p>Hadrian AE As.
