<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ambr0zie, post: 7925526, member: 80952&quot;]Congratulations, [USER=82616]@David Atherton[/USER]! finally getting a coin you were dreaming about for years must be terrific.</p><p>I hunted some modern coins from my country for years, they rarely appeared for sale, and when they finally did, the condition was terrible and the prices .... also terrible.</p><p>I had the chance to meet a gentleman who was selling an old collection and sold me some of those dream coins at very decent prices.</p><p><br /></p><p>In ancients, I don&#039;t have a dream coin, the ones that could be named dream coins ... will remain at this stage because of their extreme rarity.</p><p>The ones I still want will come sooner or later, as the coins in my short list are not rarities.</p><p><br /></p><p>However, I was extremely happy to win this Vespasian posthumous denarius with Capricorns, I created a topic about Capricorns&amp;co last Sunday</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1369449[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course, nothing spectacular, but I liked this type and I lost 2 similar coins in the last months so I was starting to wonder if I will get one. Finally did.</p><p>Although I am not 100% happy with the reverse, I just love Vespasian&#039;s portrait.</p><p><br /></p><p>In regards to your coin, I&#039;m sure I&#039;m not the only one thinking that the design looks like the Caesarea hemidrachm. Not a coin of the same caliber, but not an ugly one either <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1369450[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
