Kinda funny how your Septimius has him very basic but Julia has him buldging with muscles... and GLUTES [ATTACH=full]1363372[/ATTACH] Sadly, and too interesting not to share with you, this coin has been stuck in customs since July 29th, created a case on the 10th and still radio silence:/ I simply cannot believe it's described a Herakles and not Septimius Severus as Herakles (would love to hear [USER=19463]@dougsmit[/USER] 's opinion and know if he has the type).
