<p>[QUOTE="Marsyas Mike, post: 3134997, member: 85693"]I really like these budget buys. Here is one I got yesterday - a Julia Domna naked Venus from behind sestertius. This is one I really wanted. It came from an eBay seller in the Czech Republic who had it listed for $17 buy-it-now or best offer. Shamelessly, I offered $15 which she accepted. Shipping was a bit slow, of course, but she only charged me $4.99. I am very pleased with it, but I would like to upgrade some day. No, it doesn't really look better in hand...</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]800393[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p><b>Julia Domna Æ Sestertius</b></p><p><b>(193-196 A.D.)</b></p><p><b>Rome Mint</b></p><p>IVLIA DOMNA AVG draped bust right / VENERI VICTRI Venus, naked to waist, standing left from behind, apple in right hand, palm over left shoulder, left elbow resting on column</p><p>RIC IV 842; Sear 6631.</p><p>(21.98 grams / 28 mm)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
