[QUOTE="Guilder Pincher, post: 3240989, member: 87595"]It's been a few weeks since I last got a new coin to show here, but this came in the mail this week. Postumus is one of those emperors who may never become my main focus, but spark my interest enough to make me stay on the lookout for at least one affordable higher grade example of one of their coins to add to my collection. I've been down rabbit holes by such purchases though, so who knows how many I'll end up with.. The quality of the portrait is what ultimately made me decide for this particular coin. It always is really! Gallic Empire, Postumus, antoninianus, Cologne mint. Sold as a RIC78 but surely this is a RIC318. I keep forgetting to weigh it, but the vendor says 3.51 grams ;) [ATTACH=full]848349[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]848350[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
