<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sallent, post: 3502036, member: 76194&quot;]So the other day I remembered I had a package that I had set aside a few months back and never really opened, so I opened it and there inside was my Secret Santa gift....</p><p><br /></p><p>I know, it&#039;s almost May...not exactly Christmas, but better late than never.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]927873[/ATTACH]</p><p>Moesia Inferior, Marcianopolis. Elagabalus. A.D. 218-222. Æ (26 mm, 10.75 g, 1 h). A.D. 222. Sergius Titianus, consular legate. AVT K M AVPH ANTΩNEINOC, laureate head of Elagabalus right / VP CEPΓ TITIANOV MAPKIANOΠOλIT-Ω-N, Hera standing facing, head left, holding patera and scepter.

Nearly very fine.</p><p><i>From the Big Sky Collection.</i></p><p>Ex Triskeles 19, 337 (buyer never paid).</p><p><br /></p><p>Yeah, talk about pretty. The coin has a nice size to it, atractive patina, and great style. I absolutely love it. It does have some issues at the 7o&#039;clock mark, namely some signs of former corrosion from some time in the past. I inspected the coin and I don&#039;t see any active corrosion, but nevertheless treated with Verdicare for a few days and let it dry out for a few more days before storing it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, it is a lovely Secret Santa gift and I am absolutely thrilled to have this in my collection.</p><p><br /></p><p>Share whatever coins you think relevant.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
