<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 995197, member: 26302&quot;]In regards to your first post Doug, I do not know why RIC listed those tiny differences. To me they are simply different dies, not different types at all. You can go through the entire Roman series and pick these out. Not to say to a specialist they aren&#039;t interesting, but they do not deserve a different number. If they do you just expanded Roman coinage types x100 at least. To non specialists they are the same coin. Even the 4 reverse types you showed, (which is extremely interesting, I need to look at my coins more now <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />), it really is the same type, just different dies, to me at least. It does not make them less interesting to collectors, I just like to limit types when you can for the general collector, and let the specialists have the fun.</p><p><br /></p><p>I kinda like sand patina, but I am a details man. I would choose any patina that has the greatest detail on the coin showing. I have bought a few of those gorgeous glossy green patina coins, but I comfort myself that they are also exceptional coins as well as being pretty.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
