[QUOTE="Curtisimo, post: 2843716, member: 83845"]I like cheap coins and I like expensive coins. I like ugly coins and I like beautiful ones too. I just like ancient coins and because I don't ever intend to sell them my interest is somewhat decoupled from price considerations (so long as I can afford them). Like [USER=51347]@Alegandron[/USER] my favorite coins are historically interesting and preferably tell a neat story/have an interesting purpose. That being said I will also say that I am a proud bottom feeder when I like the coin :) [ATTACH=full]673399[/ATTACH] Valentinian I AE3 (364-375) Obv.: [B]D N VALENTINIANVS P F AVG[/B] - Diademed, draped bust right Rev.: [B]GLORIA ROMANORVM[/B] - Valentinian, holding labarum, advancing right dragging captive by the hair.
