Hey guys, just wanted to share with you my new coin!
Bought it from FVRIVS RVFVS and I'm so glad I met this sir and his ebay store.

I'm really happy with the coin! What do you guys think?

Although the coin is worn I like it for the very thick mottled olive like patina
No chips in it either !
That and the reverse referencing the British victory makes it special
Any Britain and later the Londinium connections seem to be all the rage
Happiness is a nice bronze !
