The final and most recent installment to my collection. The legends on both sides are not the clearest in places, but I don't mind much. I like it!

Thanks guys! I appreciate the kind words. echizento, I try to pick good ones! Gotta have a nice even patina and over 50% readable legends. Obviously there might be a few exceptions here and there, but it's ok. I am willing to spend the extra coin on examples from this city that are in a good state of preservation. I already have about 10 coins from Markianopolis! Most of them I have posted, so you all know what the condition is. They are all quite large, too. I love big coins. Feels like real money.

I like coins with even green patina too--I especially like the portrait on this one.
