<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Curtisimo, post: 5144046, member: 83845&quot;]I think you underestimated your collecting year, Doug. Some of these are the kinds of coins you don’t get multiple chances at. </p><p><br /></p><p>My favorites:</p><p><br /></p><p>#4 Tarkondimotos - My favorite coins are the ones that tell a story and this is a coin that has an individual story to tell. The theory that the countermark was meant to cover up a bad bet made by the family is absolutely fascinating.&nbsp; This coin was lucky to escape the eraser of historical revision.</p><p><br /></p><p>#1 Clodius Albinus / Septimus Severus - This is another story coin. It’s an ironic final insult to Albinus that he will have to stare forever at the man who outwitted him. </p><p><br /></p><p>#9 C. Renius Denarius - Im a bit ashamed to pick the pretty one as a favorite but this is a nice coin with a pleasant tone. Those republicans would put anything in front of a chariot <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie46" alt=":facepalm:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
