numismatic student Pillar of the Community United States 9119 Posts	Posted 06/28/2022 4:57 pm This is my first coin of Augustus as Emperor. I thought the obverse portrait was stunning in spite of the slightly off center reverse. Thoughts? Thanks! Augustus. Silver Denarius (4.02 g), 27 BC-AD 14. Rome, 16 BC. L. Mescinius Rufus, moneyer. Laureate head of Augustus right. Reverse: L MESCINIVS RVFVS, helmeted and cloaked Mars, holding spear and parazonium, standing facing on pedestal inscribed S P Q R / V PR RE / CAES in three lines. RIC 351; BMC 86; RSC 463a. Magnificent portrait, beautiful style, and excellent metal. Lovely old cabinet toning. Superb Extremely Fine.

numismatic student Pillar of the Community United States 9119 Posts	Posted 06/28/2022 6:46 pm No way. Not even in silver. I might pick up some here and there if the right coins come up at the right price.

Spence Moderator United States 24271 Posts	Posted 06/28/2022 6:52 pm You sound pretty sure at the moment, but I'm gonna wait and see where you go with this.

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 19864 Posts	Posted 06/29/2022 12:31 am The obverse has an almost medallic appearance about it, without any legend. Nice condition and even toning in this case helps. As far as the 12 Caesars are concerned, I have never thought about it too much, but perhaps my approach would be much the same as the OP's, and most probably across all denominations of the period.
