echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 01/09/2013 8:18 pm Very nice looking coin with excellent details. It's been a long while since I've posted anything new, so it's good to see that others are picking up some nice coins. Report this Post to the Staff

IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36839 Posts	Posted 01/09/2013 8:26 pm I looked at another coin that had better detail but there was a crack about 1/3 of the way through the planchet. Passed on it and went with the coin with less detail. What is the feeling of coins with cracks, big deal price wise or no big deal? Report this Post to the Staff

Masis Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 946 Posts	Posted 01/10/2013 10:50 am Really lustrous toning to it! Considering that in his reign the Antoninianii had about 35% silver to it, a great example! Report this Post to the Staff
