orfew Pillar of the Community Canada 1269 Posts	Posted 09/17/2017 5:47 pm I just won a a lot in the Naville auction. There were 4 reasons I bought this coin: 1. I wanted a coin of Antoninus Pius (this is my first one) 2. There is a snake on the reverse 3. It is a Dattari plate coin. 4. It is an RPC Online plate coin I bought it for all of the above reasons. I really like the look of this coin. Please post your Dattari coins, your plate coins, or your coins of A.Pius. Egypt, Alexandria. Dattari.

Kamnaskires Pillar of the Community United States 7066 Posts	Posted 09/17/2017 6:18 pm Nice pickup, and a plate coin to boot. Well done. Seems you were overdue for an Antoninus Pius. Isn't there some sort of law that states a Pius must be among the first acquisitions a Roman collector gets? Report this Post to the Staff
