Got these two last month, Theodosius and Arcadius. These are in better shape than what is usually offered (from my browsing experience), so I picked them up.

Very nice additions ValianKnight.

I agree, much better than the usual offerings.

Nice portaits, readable legends and mint marks, attractive patinas with nice texture. Well done!

I know! The postal gods must be angry at me; nearly all of my coin packages have been late

Though it's better they arrive late than not arriving at all, for sure!
