[QUOTE="Mat, post: 1182632, member: 21445"]Well I tried to get my own pics but the camera on my phone is turning all photos a weird green so I guess its on its way out...worthless 2 year old iphone:mad:. Anyways below is my new Severus Alexander, hes another emperor I have wanted for awhile but couldnt decide on a reverse type. I loved the Spes version but they all seemed to go higher then what I wanted to pay for someone so common. I finally saw this victory reverse style and immediately liked it also. Found this for a very good price on Sayles and Lavender. Its my lightest Denarius and has one VERY high portrait relief & I liked the doubling around the face. The light porosity on the photo isnt as bad when seen in-hand. [IMG]http://i51.tinypic.com/2r53wio.jpg[/IMG] Severus Alexander (222 - 235 A.D.) Silver denarius 228 - 231 A.D O: IMP SEV ALE-XAND AVG, laureate head right. R: VICTORIA AVGVSTI, Victory standing right, left foot on helmet, inscribing VOT X on shield. 2.2g RIC IV 218 Edited to add a older photo before the green look appeared.
