[QUOTE="Sallent, post: 2898552, member: 76194"]Here is a Geta I acquired which is not going to be staying in my collection, as it's going out to someone in this forum whom I won't disclose. I'm sure I'll see it in a future thread, but I can't help myself and I want to share it now with all of you. The obverse bust is a beauty. The reverse is not as impressive as the obverse (though I think Providentia it is a decent Providentia), but I think the sweet obverse portrait of Geta more than makes up for the slight strike weakness on the reverse and makes this coin a sweet example of a Geta Denarius. [ATTACH=full]697789[/ATTACH] By the way, here is my Geta from my personal collection. [ATTACH=full]697790[/ATTACH] I will probably be sharing a few more temporary coins soon, as I hope to be able to surprise a few individuals with Christmas gifts. They won't know they're getting coins until they see them in the mail before the end of year though, so I won't be disclosing any recipient names in any "temporary coin" threads I share.[/QUOTE]
