<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DonnaML, post: 8185809, member: 110350&quot;]My first new addition to my Gallienus Zoo series coins in quite some time arrived today: a centaur facing right, with bow and arrow, to go with the centaur facing left I already had (see photo above). It&#039;s also the first coin I&#039;ve ever bought from a dealer in Sweden! Not that I should really find that so unusual. After all, the Romans got a lot closer to Sweden than they did to New York City. I hadn&#039;t seen one of these in such good condition available in a while, so I bought it as soon as I noticed it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Gallienus, Billon Antoninianus, 267-268 AD, Rome Mint (7th Officina).
