Message:: [QUOTE="Eduard, post: 2903468, member: 8959"]Thank you all for posting your damaged but still loved coins! To comment on just a few:gsimonel, any Ae as of Vitellius is an interesting coin in my opinion, and worth adding to a collection. The legend on that example and most of the bust still clear. I am a fan of Vitellius so I would have no skipped by that one. Mikey, your Caligula sestertius is still quite lovely, with a very distinct reverse. Yes, I would certainly take that example in my collection. Amazing what that other example brough that you posted  (you could buy a house for that much!) Ancient Aussie, thank you for your comments about the A. Pius Ancilia as. I was afraid the patina may start flaking off at the borders -  hopefully it doesn't as it is still a nice enjoyable coin. Your Augustus denarius is quite appealing and the part which broke off luckily did not affect the main devices. The bust and the reverse are still intact and that is what counts. I think you did well on that one. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> [/QUOTE]
