<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rexesq, post: 1133607, member: 5739&quot;]<b>Caracalla Antoninianii</b></p><p><br /></p><p>Well <b>Cucumbor </b>and <b>Randy</b> they are pretty rare and prices have gone up, that beautiful ROMA &#039;PM TR P COS PP&#039; reverse one, actually cost less than this VICTOR ANTONINI one when I bought it around 3 or 4 years ago, and the Caracalla ones have gotten even more expensive, I&#039;m glad I got my nice Caracalla &#039;Venus Victrix&#039; coins when the gettin was good a few years ago, God knows how much my &#039;seen from the front&#039; bust of Caracalla would go for now, its quite large too, check it out. Here is a shot with it next to a US 25 cent piece, good size reference... and then another shot one with it and another &#039;VENUS VICTRIX&#039; reverse, this one with a &#039;seen from behind&#039; bust next to a US 25 cent piece. The frontal bust weighs 5.2 grams, the other weighs 5.5 grams. I just need a VENUS VICTRIX with the cuirassed(armored style) bust, seen from behind....</p><p><br /></p><p>The third photo is the frontal bust VENUS VICTRIX, note how well struck and well centered it is.... one of my favorite coins, definitely my favorite of Caracalla.</p><p>The photo of the VENUS VICTRIX with Venus holding a helmet instead of Victory and having two captives at her feet is a bit off-color due to my camera, the coin has a nice silver shine to it as you can see from the other photos.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am going to post a couple more in another post below, all the ones in this post and that one are of the same two&nbsp; Caracalla Silver Antoninianii.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
