[QUOTE="akeady, post: 8268354, member: 83175"]Nice! - I won a victoriatus today - expensive, but a slightly different variety to what I already have and a nice coin. This is a CNG pic: [IMG]https://www.cngcoins.com/Photos.AM/4-5C5ULS/4-5C6Q3O.jpg[/IMG] I had a bit of a scare in the last few days with the arrival of a coin from CNG from a January sale.
