<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TIF, post: 2465723, member: 56859&quot;]In general, I prefer coins without bankers&#039; marks and when they have them, I&#039;d like them to be in the fields.&nbsp; It&#039;s all about eye appeal though, and sometimes they don&#039;t detract much even when on a device.&nbsp; Often the coins sell for less when there are such marks.&nbsp;&nbsp; I&#039;ll happily accept the bankers&#039; marks on this denarius-- it made the price more reasonable and the coin is otherwise very nice for the type.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://www.cointalk.com/proxy.php?image=https%3A%2F%2Fstatic.wixstatic.com%2Fmedia%2Fae43f8_b1ffa85f24c54fc2918749032a819ecd.jpg%2Fv1%2Ffill%2Fw_1000%2Ch_504%2Cal_c%2Cq_90%2Fae43f8_b1ffa85f24c54fc2918749032a819ecd.jpg&amp;hash=93d362402082d528379f201ba66861e6" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><b>Roman Imperatorial, moneyer L.
