I find myself liking RR more, especially as I manage to move past the glut of Victory/biga types that are on the lower end of the spectrum. There are a few now on my "want list", and a couple of Imperatorial. Maybe it started with the Aretas Nabatean RR I bought a couple of years ago.
thanks for the countdown and sharing about the coins!! i really enjoyed reading each post. my fave coin was #7. funny how it could be low(er) on your list, but high on mine! just goes to show that each coin speaks differently to each person.
A great #1 ! This coin would nicely in any collection, it looks great. I still would like to get a nice RR denarius when I'm able too. Thanks for the thread too, was very enjoyable.
I would like to see a thread on republics. I really enjoy them myself but like AR greeks, they are pretty pricey so I tend to shy away from them. I have yet to get one on ebay due to their final bid results
Great thread. And the teasing from # 10 to # 1 has been breathtaking (to me at least) A very nice and covetable collection you have here. I'm looking forward to seeing what your top ten will be in, say, two or three years. Q
Great stories and some wonderful Ancients you have in this thread. I certainly learned some interesting facts along with seeing some great coins! Thanks for sharing..
