I really like the portrait on that Severus Alexander Denarius as well as the portrait of Antoninus Pius on the last coin you posted in your first post.</p><p>&nbsp;The Emperor Decius - &#039;ADVENTUS&#039; Antoninianus is also one of my favorite types, nice example! I have an &#039;ADVENTUS&#039; myself of Decius in a bit lower grade I think, but I love the &#039;emperor on horseback&#039; look. I have noticed that on the &#039;ADVENTUS&#039; Antoninianii of Emperor Philip I, the horse and rider(the Emperor) tend to be a bit out of proportion to eachother, either the horse looks too small in comparison with the rider, or the rider looks too big in comparison with the horse..... but no such problem with most of those of Decius it seems.</p><p><br /></p><p>Interesting what <b>dougsmit</b> said about finding interesting Antoninus Pius reverses.... but seems true in my case as well, I only have two, well three if you count posthumous issues, Silver coins of his, one has Aequitas on the reverse, fairly common, not too special, but the other one is the ITALIA reverse, with Italia seated holding a cornucopia, kinda interesting reverse, I like the &#039;travel&#039; series coins that were done by various Emperors. The Italia still just has someone sitting there on the reverse though, so I guess it isn&#039;t all that interesting, aside from the reverse title and who it is sitting....[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
