<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John Anthony, post: 2300259, member: 42773&quot;]A little chapter in the annals of collecting off the beaten path. I came across a lot of very ratty denarii, in which was thrown this black coin of S. Severus - basically a lot of throw-away coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now, if it&#039;s just a darkly-toned AR denarius, fine, it&#039;s still a nice coin. But if it&#039;s bronze, it&#039;s one of the damn finest limes denarii I&#039;ve ever come across. They are typically quite ratty and poorly struck.</p><p><br /></p><p>I extracted the image of the coin from the rest of the lot, and this is all I&#039;ve got to post. But I&#039;ll update when I receive it. It looks to me as if the reverse has some minor roughness typical of bronze, so keep your fingers crossed for me. Please Santa, make it bronze!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]462139[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
