VisigothKing Pillar of the Community United States 4778 Posts	Posted 10/31/2011 2:51 pm I know how some of you don't exactly enjoy seeing ancients in 2x2's, but since this one is still blast silver white, I feel more comfortable keeping him in there instead of an plastic flip where air can get through (plus the 2x2 has like 7 staples, and staples for me are really annoying to take out). The coin basically looks the same in hand like it does in the pic. It doesn't exactly show, but it actually has a slight bit of luster too. Anyways, my Trajan Decius! Obv: IMP C MQ TRAIANVS DECIVS AVG Rev: PANNONIAE, two Pannoniae standing front, holding standards, RIC 21b (I don't know the mint though, but I'm guessing Rome) Also I think there may be what looks to be like a die crack or something on the second point on Decius's crown. BTW to see the details better just click on the pic itself. Edited by VisigothKing 10/31/2011 3:02 pm Report this Post to the Staff
