<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Travlntiques, post: 1857798, member: 39129&quot;]Hello everyone, I&#039;m still working on assembling some sort of an ancient collection, but I haven&#039;t posted any new acquisitions lately! These five are all from the same dealer and add a few new faces to the very mini-hoard. I just came back from the Long Beach C&amp;S Expo this evening and was pretty surprised by the prices most dealers had on their similar quality ancients. I left those alone, but did pick up a few Medieval coins that aren&#039;t yet photo&#039;d. As far as these coins go, it looks as though Geta suffered some fire damage and I know how hard that is to clean off, but if anyone thinks it&#039;s something besides &quot;lampblack&quot; let me know. I left them in the 2x2&#039;s for a quick photo session, LOL, sorry about that, but if anyone has some twins please share!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>[ATTACH]311661[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]311662[/ATTACH] </p><p>SEVERUS ALEXANDER DENARIUS</p><p>AD222</p><p>Obv: IMP C M AVR SEV ALEXAND AVG, laureate draped bust right</p><p>Rev: P M TR P COS PP, Fortuna standing half left, holding rudder on globe and cornucopiae, star to left</p><p>RIC 267, RSC 223a</p><p>3.42g / 19mm</p><p>[ATTACH]311663[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]311664[/ATTACH]</p><p>ELAGABALUS DENARIUS</p><p>Obv: IMP ANTONINVS PIVS AVG, laureate draped bust right</p><p>Rev: P M TR P III COS III P P, Sol, radiate, advancing left raising right hand &amp; holding whip, star to left</p><p>RIC, RSC 154</p><p>2.35g / 16mm</p><p>[ATTACH]311665[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]311666[/ATTACH] </p><p>CARACALLA DENARIUS</p><p>Obv: ANTONINVS PIVS AVG, laureate head right</p><p>Rev: P M TR P XI COS III, Mars in fighting stance right holding spear &amp; shield</p><p>RIC 100, RSC 447</p><p>3.68g / 16mm</p><p>[ATTACH]311667[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]311668[/ATTACH]</p><p>PHILIP II ANTONINIANUS</p><p>Obv: IMP PHILIPPVS AVG, radiate draped bust right</p><p>Rev: LIBERALITAS AVGG III, Philips I &amp; II seated on curule chairs distributing cash</p><p>RIC 230, RSC 17</p><p>3.92g / 22mm</p><p>[ATTACH]311669[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]311670[/ATTACH] </p><p>GETA DENARIUS</p><p>Obv: L SEPTIMIVS GETA CAES, draped bust right</p><p>Rev: SEVERI PII AVG FIL, priestly implements - lituus, knife, jug, simpulum, &amp; sprinkler</p><p>RIC 3, RSC 188</p><p>2.82g / 16mm[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
