<p>[QUOTE="Orange Julius, post: 26498002, member: 77226"]Yeah you paid more than you could have but honestly… view the $90 as entry fee to an amazing hobby. I spent hundreds ($5 or $10 a piece) on really crappy coins when I started out and I don’t regret it. Those early coins taught me a lot about ancient coins, references and resources, photography and online places to discuss my new treasures. I still have all of those coins and love em still… even if they are ugly. They’re pieces of history… and they aren’t making any more of them so why not. Anyway, Claudius II was a badass. I have lots of his coins that form one of my favorite sub collections. Your coin looks like a Milan mint coin. I have many… most need redone photography because the lighting is not great… but here some are anyway.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1689165[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1689166[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1689168[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1689169[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1689170[/ATTACH]</p><p>Just stay away from the Antioch coins… those are for me. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1689176[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1689177[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1689178[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1689179[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1689180[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
