    Some fantastic portraits!

    Here's mine (not as nice!):

    [​IMG]
    Philip I, AD 244-249
    AR, Antoninianus, 3.7g, 21.5mm; 1h; Rome, AD 247
    Obv.: IMP M IVL PHILIPPVS AVG; radiate, draped & cuirassed bust right Rev.: P M TR P IIII COS II P P; Felicitas standing left holding caduceus & cornucopia.

    The above coin was an impulse purchase - at the time I bought it I wanted to just add an ancient to my small collection. This coin was one of two that turned me into a serious ancient collector.

    I like this VICTORIA CARPICA for the unusual mention of a specific enemy tribe.
