<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Justin Lee, post: 3738346, member: 87404&quot;]I agree with you bunch, that there&#039;s something so satisfying about the heft of sesterti, and all 3 of them have that weight. Of all 3 my fave is the Septimius just because you see soooo many denari of him (I don&#039;t have any) and its refreshing to hold a bigger, bronzer coin of his and the portrait is pleasing (Doug, I like your reverse better though) and it&#039;s nice and smoothly worn. The Maximinus is decently preserved on the obverse, but the reverse isn&#039;t as nice as I was wanting when I purchased it (not the greatest seller photos)... I&#039;m satisfied with it though. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie85" alt=":smuggrin:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> And that Faustina is just cool with her being veiled and her greenish glow <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie24" alt=":blackalien:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> with plenty of wear feels like a ghost coin.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I have been busy lol I surprise myself at the quantity too.</p><p>Yes, I love sprues too! Tells the story of the coin and its &quot;birth&quot;... There should be a post where we can all share our sprue coins throughout history. Maybe there is... I&#039;ll check after I post this (these aren&#039;t my only ones with sprues or evidence of sprues) (Edit: <a href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/evidence-of-flan-preparation.297649/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/evidence-of-flan-preparation.297649/">close to a thread about sprues</a>). I too like the dot under the horse, and I didn&#039;t know there were ones like that until this one came up and it feels special. And the palm is very nice too!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Thank you, Sir!</p><p><br /></p><p>And thank you all!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
