chuy1530 Pillar of the Community United States 513 Posts	Posted 02/28/2015 7:05 pm I decided a while back that I'd like to buy a nice early imperial (pre-Commodus) denarius. I've always liked reading about Trajan, so when I saw this one come up it fit the bill perfectly. Pretty sure it's RIC 52. I really couldn't be happier with it. One minor question, the fourth "I" on the obverse seems to have something going on at the top of it. Is that just a strike or die defect, or is that something they did intentionally? I don't see it on the Wildwinds example. Report this Post to the Staff

chuy1530 Pillar of the Community United States 513 Posts	Posted 02/28/2015 8:00 pm I've managed to avoid the Siliqua bug so far. I finally finished scratching my Republican Denarius itch and now I'm on to the Imperials! I'd love to build a nice set of Flavians but they run pretty expensive; I'll probably end up upgrading my Hadrian next. Report this Post to the Staff

It certainly is an addictive and expensive bug to get Though personally, Siliqua are my favorite denominations to collect. Edited by Augustus Maximus 02/28/2015 8:20 pm Report this Post to the Staff
