maridvnvm Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2121 Posts	Posted 06/23/2013 05:52 am A very nice looking coin. Just look at the details on the cuirass that Roma is seated on. You don't often see this level of detail in areas like the inverted spear, where you can see every dot that was used to create the shaft or on the Victoriola which is often just some abstract squiggles whereas here you can make out Victory reaching upwards with the wreath to crown Roma with it. A very nice find indeed. Regards, Martin Report this Post to the Staff
