[QUOTE="rexesq, post: 1526785, member: 5739"][b]Thanks[/b] Thanks sooo much for the info and link Kurt, [B]Biancasdad[/B] ! Very Helpful my friend. [B]Randy[/B], ah yes, I added an extra "COS" in my first description, by mistake. Thanks for the links mate. Great Severus Alexander Bronze coin of yours, always admired it since you got it. [B]Ripley[/B] Thank you for the input my friend, several other Emperors, such as Gordian III, have a very similar reverse with 'Emperor standing holding globe' on their coins, so we are able to recognize this one. Also those of Sol, usually depict Sol as being Nude, and as [B]Randy[/B] said he wears a Radiate crown. After looking at the price for the Sev Alexander AE As on Vcoins, it seems I got quite a good deal on this coin, I also really dig the patina! That and the detail on the Emperor's bust and Laureate crown, as well as his depiction on the reverse, you can see some ofthe leather strips of his uniform that cover the upper arm, as well as the 'kilt/skirt' type 'pants' worn, and the titles are pretty good on both sides in my opinion. Thanks for all your help everyone, Feel free to post any pics of any of your Severus Alexander coins here (Silver, Bronze, Gold, whatever..... POST IT!) Thanks again,[/QUOTE]
