echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 05/12/2012 8:39 pm The coin looks fine but it's in terrible condition. I honestly wouldn't spend any money on it. There are so many better coins of this emperor that I would wait for one to come along. You may have to spend a few dollars more, but you would have a better coin to enjoy.
