[QUOTE="Gam3rBlake, post: 8065788, member: 115909"]For a while I’ve been keeping my eye out for nice examples of the first Twelve Caesar’s (at a reasonable price) and today I managed to win this pretty decent denarius of Vespasian ^_^. I bid on a Tiberius too but the price went way above what I was willing to bid for it. Now I have Domitian and Vespasian. Only 10 more to go! :) I really like the strong strike and decent centering of this denarius. Oh and I really love the rainbow toning above his diadem. <3 (NGC & HA photos) [ATTACH=full]1398309[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1398375[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1398310[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1398376[/ATTACH] [B]Vespasian (AD 69-79). AR denarius (17mm, 3.41 gm, 5h). NGC Choice AU 5/5 - 4/5.[/B] Rome, AD 70. IMP CAESAR VESPASIANVS AVG, laureate head of Vespasian right / COS ITER-TR POT, Pax seated left, branch upward in outstretched right hand, transverse caduceus in left. RIC II.1 29.[/QUOTE]
