<p>[QUOTE="Limes, post: 4572241, member: 101013"]Some explanation first: strictly speaking, I finished the 12 C's set in silver earlier. But for the digital tray, I wanted to focus on the portrait (obverse). I just wasn't completely statisfied with how some of the portraits of some of my coins looked together in a digital tray. Yes, I am like that.</p><p>Four coins acquired this year allowed me to finish it.

Acquired in the NAC Spring Sale some weeks ago, I believe it coin was one of the coins with the lowest hammer price. Good for me, and it proves the theory of [USER=112660]@MSG 78[/USER], stated in his thread earlier.

The Caligula is rough, yes, but I love the portrait! (And money-wise, it is at good as it gets for me).
