I see two faults. The edge is obvious. I can not explain the lump on the forehead. The style is good and overall it is a coin worthy of consideration even by the x6 collection. Mine was purchased in 1993 when there were a lot of nice Maxentius coins on the market (a hoard, I assume). It was cheaper then. It is always better to buy when there are a lot on the market and before people decide a coin is interesting. The trouble is that it can be hard to figure out what is 'current' before they are 'last year'.

Did you notice how much better strike is on the x6 reverse? ... or did you just see the better edge on mine?
