Message:: [QUOTE="DonnaML, post: 4877396, member: 110350"]And here are some from the Roman Empire -- it's equally difficult to choose my "favorites."  Some I like because of the obverse, others because of the reverse, and still others for both sides.  There are others I could have chosen that I like just as much, including a few for which the photos I have simply aren't very good. Again, I've kept the identifying descriptions as brief as possible. Tiberius / Livia as Pax. RIC I 30. [ATTACH=full]1178012[/ATTACH] Galba / S P Q R/ O • B/ C S in wreath.
