<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GregH, post: 2410751, member: 75936&quot;]I don&#039;t collect Roman Republic coins generally, but I felt my collection (which is mostly the portrait series of emperors) needed one coin to represent the republic. I think the most interesting RR piece is the Janus/galley as, so I went and got one:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]498215[/ATTACH]</p><p>Anonymous Æ As. Rome, after 211 BC. Laureate head of Janus; I above / Prow of galley right; I above, ROMA in exergue. Crawford 56/2; Sydenham 143. 27.56g, 34mm, 6h</p><p><br /></p><p>I like that the head of Janus is very clear and there&#039;s a nice patina. The coin isn&#039;t perfect but it has character. Mind you, i&#039;m always nervous about posting new aquisitions, someone might make me realise how foolish I&#039;ve been![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
