Even though it isn't in the best of condition, it's still a rare coin and I would love to have it.

This is one AE type that I am not expecting to come through my mail slot any time soon. After almost 40 years collecting I don't remember even seeing one up close.

malamute67, is it easy to find Romans in Spain or do you have to look at other areas in Europe to find these?

There are two magnificent auction houses that have a lot of auctions quasi every month,and are very complete,at least in Roman Empire. Not sure if it is allowed to make propaganda ..... If anyone cares to know,there is no problem ...
