<p>[QUOTE="kevin McGonigal, post: 2143738, member: 72790"]I know many collectors would pass up a coin like that because of the considerable wear. But the smooth even wear of your coin is quite pleasing and it reminds us of the all the Romans who handled this coin and makes us wonder just who spent this coin and what on. Pretorian prefect for a cup of good wine? Freedman on a fresh loaf of bread? Legionary out for a good time? Offering to one's favorite divinity? Oh, if coins like this could talk.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
