[QUOTE="Finn235, post: 3407529, member: 98035"]I have a few that I feel are show-show-worthy My favorite portrait of all time, Caracalla with his patented snarl [ATTACH=full]904895[/ATTACH] Just look at that scrunched up nose! Quintillus [ATTACH=full]904900[/ATTACH] Trebonianus Gallus [ATTACH=full]904903[/ATTACH] Marcus Aurelius, the best portrait I could get without going into the several hundreds of dollars [ATTACH=full]904912[/ATTACH] Added bonus: This is an extremely rare variant of the reverse type with TRP XXXI and IMP VIIII - the engraver took a worn IMP VIII and added an extra I over the top of Jupiter's scepter! A similarly nice Trajan / Arabia Acquired [ATTACH=full]904924[/ATTACH] This one, no biggie [ATTACH=full]904925[/ATTACH] Not often you see a Marcian with even a discernible portrait [ATTACH=full]904926[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
