<p>[QUOTE="Moe "Wolfy" Wilder, post: 8281353, member: 114824"]I apologize, I had a whole answer typed in to explain how my luck runs really good. followed by really, really bad, and the system logged me out and I lost it..</p><p><br /></p><p>But yes, not exaggerating and not <i>really</i> trying to brag. I did find all of those and more, and yes, I have cleaned untold thousands of coins over last 20 years. I would add Libius Severus to the list of those found (in the more recent 2019/20 lot). I once sold a 10 piece lot of crusties for use in a "zapping" contest that was zapped into a fairly nice legionary denarius. The contestants had to post before and after pics of the lots so that's the only way I knew about it. I also found a Victorianus (early republican silver denomination, same size and weight as later denarius) in that 2013 lot but I almost forgot because it's crystalized and maybe covered with horn silver. I already posted my Otho that is only 2 of a kind, the other is in a Bavarian museum. I have a coin, and I don't know exactly where it came from other than pre-2014, that has a macedonian shield, no big deal, right, but it's on both sides! (wtf?) Crazy luck, but I am afraid the bad luck is coming to wipe it all out again.</p><p><br /></p><p>I just looked up Vagi.
