It is worth having a couple of ancient fouree in your collection, just to know what they look like, and for this reason, thanks for posting the pictures.

Just got in from the FUN show. I really like this coin. The portrait looks more like JC than Octavian. Congrats.

I'm working on my tablet which is not the easiest to use, so I will make a more in depth report when I get home tomorrow night. Great show. I handled some fantastic high end coins which I couldn't afford. I bought a few coins in my price range though. I plan to go back in the morning.
