[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 3263614, member: 10461"]Conga-rats! Indeed I rejoice for thee. I've only had three pieces of ancient gold (and one of them is technically electrum). Excluding the Greek electrum piece below, I've only had Byzantine gold, not Roman yet. Two of these are in my present collection.
