[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 2719416, member: 19463"]I mean no offence by adding some English suggestions but this is a suggestion of how a native English speaker might have said the same thing. [COLOR=#0000b3]Tomorrow will be my birthday. This is my present for myself. Octavian and Julius Caesar Ae. sestertius, DIVI F, bare h. of Octavian r., star in field to r., rev., DIVOS IVLIVS within laurel wreath (Sear, 466). You can see the details in the sun, DIVOS IVLIVS and DIVI F, too. I have always wanted one but, for all that time, I could not afford one. This one had a fair price. 19.97g These are vendor pictures. I have to wait for the mail before I can photograph it. [/COLOR] I have always wanted one of these or one of the similar coins with the portrait of Julius on the reverse but have not yet found one for my collection. Congratulations on finding such a nice one. Thank you for sharing it.[/QUOTE]
