[QUOTE="Evan8, post: 2770213, member: 74343"]I like to go into antique stores occasionally and sometimes there are coins. Usually US coins are what you find but I found this one in a case surrounded by US coins. Let's just say I practically stole this one. If only all my coins could have been bought this cheap. Sorry for the slab pics. Im not sure if im going to keep it as im not a big fan of the later Roman coins, so I have left it in the slab in case I do turn around and sell it.
