[QUOTE="maridvnvm, post: 4871880, member: 31620"]So when do you stop upgrading? I believe this type to be in the scarce to rare range but if you were to look at my collection you might change your mind. [B]Septimius Severus denarius [/B] Obv:– IMP CAE L SEP - SEV PERT AVG, Laureate head right Rev:– ROMAE AE-TERNAE, Roma seated left on shield, holding Victory in right hand, spear in left. Minted in Alexandria. A.D. 194 Reference:– RIC IV 350G; BMCRE 323; RSC 615 I started with this poor example..... [IMG]https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/albums/userpics/10618/RI_064te_img.jpg[/IMG] and upgraded some years later to this one [IMG]https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/albums/userpics/10618/RI_064qv_img.jpg[/IMG] I have now upgraded to this one which has a different reverse legend break A-ETERNAE. I has a full legend reverse, which is often not the case. [ATTACH=full]1176507[/ATTACH] I know that Doug has an example and I could find a single example in acsearch. Share your upgrades.[/QUOTE]
