sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 05/30/2012 8:38 pm Nice coin. Republican Denarii are under represented in my collection. I agree; there seems a bit of tooling, but not too bad. I suspect that may have came about as a result of cleaning after being dug up. Sometimes, some unsightly encrustations can only be removed with a bit of physical persuasion. Report this Post to the Staff

oxos Valued Member United States 422 Posts	Posted 05/30/2012 9:38 pm I don't have any Republican coins at all I don't think. But that is a fine example and would be proud to have that in my collection. I don't know enough about 'tooling' to give an expert opinion, but I like the way the reverse looks. Stevex pretty much brought that to life! Nice coin Eng! Report this Post to the Staff
