<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Alegandron, post: 3042440, member: 51347&quot;]I captured an interesting &quot;coin&quot; this weekend that I did not expect would really be in my collection.&nbsp; I focus on The Roman Republic and those entities that interacted with them...&nbsp; As a side collection, I am getting as many of the Roman Rulers that I can so that I can build a Roman History collection for my Grandkids.&nbsp; I now have 150 <b><span style="color: #b30000">[EDIT 151]</span></b> of the Roman Rulers out of a &quot;possible&quot; 214... the list is always subject to scrutiny and/or change, but has been fun to fill.</p><p><br /></p><p><i>(I update the RIC Rarity list - yeah, that is no longer accurate - based on discussions here as well as some researches.&nbsp; I have added several provincials or possible Rulers that have coins. Hence, 214 Rulers, and no, the control #16 ANONYMOUS does not count.)</i></p><p><br /></p><p>Here are a couple of my latest.</p><p><br /></p><p>I normally do not collect the Levant area, however, this one attracted my eye because of the cool detail that I do not see too often in Prutahs.&nbsp; Decent price, great and trusted seller, BOOM!&nbsp; Mine:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]759551[/ATTACH]</p><p>Judaea, Roman Administration (Procuratorial).</p><p>Claudius, with <b>Britannicus</b>.</p><p>AD 41-54.
