<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 3115906, member: 19463&quot;]I also have a problem demonstrated by Claudius II coins.&nbsp; I like the style of some mints much better than others.&nbsp; I like the reverses used or some other features of other mints better.&nbsp; I like the fact that some mints/series regularly come in better condition but I do not approve of collecting only coins that come in high grade and denying the existence of the sloppy mints.&nbsp;&nbsp; Someone needs to love coin #2 or there will only be one specimen.&nbsp; Is it FDC?&nbsp; Maybe the type will cease to exist because no one wants ugly coins.&nbsp; I hope we don&#039;t come to that. </p><p>Each coin below has something I like and something I might prefer improved.&nbsp; It is the hobby as I know it. </p><p><br /></p><p>Portrait</p><p>[ATTACH=full]791764[/ATTACH] </p><p>Young Hercules?</p><p>[ATTACH=full]791765[/ATTACH] </p><p>different/better style reverse</p><p>[ATTACH=full]791766[/ATTACH] </p><p>Consecratio with Gothico obverse</p><p>[ATTACH=full]791767[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
