Well, I didn't win most of the coins I wanted over the last few days, might have something interesting next weekend but will just have to wait and see. Rather than not enter I thought I would put in the only coin I did win. I know its not a beauty but hey, its an entry. Septimus Severus, Nikopolis, showing Crescent Moon and Star, around 200AD. Not IDed it so may not be 100% accurate.  Nice green patina and still requires a little cleaning, couldn't resist as it was only $2.87 including shipping  May not be the most impressive but what else can you buy for less than $3 these days.

Gold jwharper republican den. (a coin I would be very happy to own myself)
Silver echizento Diocletian of Tripolis (I have a big soft spot for Tripolis)
Bronze t0rress Scowling Caracalla (love these portraits they seem to convey how dangerous he could be)
Note for Eng5858 - I believe your Philip to be Rome mint rather then Antioch.

Gold - Gil-galad, Helena, $11.50
Cребро - t0rress, Caracalla, $35.00
Bronze - JW, Roman Republic Denarius, $43.77
A lot of good value coins, shows that you do not have to spend a fortune to get nice pieces. Particularly liked some of the later coins but decided not to vote on anything later than 500AD.
