[QUOTE="Bart9349, post: 1715530, member: 5682"]Both very nce. As an aside, I sort of enjoy those partially silvered Antoniniani. The superficial and delicate silver wash that remains is, for me, like some of the original red that is evident on older copper coins: [ATTACH]264617.vB[/ATTACH] Both coins by Tacitus are great pieces of history of a non-military emperor, which was rare during the Third Century Crisis.
