Good detail for this particular coin. So many are worn or the strikes were weak.

thanks bing, yeah, you're right. you can see it on the top of the sellers pic here, I thought for sure the obverse was going to be bad...but it's pretty awesome. dirty version of one of my trajans is visible, "rust" colered one I'm still working on. some other promising coins visible.

I saw one selling with a a much lesser reverse for $15 bucks so I would say you did well my friend. It is a great coin, I would love to have a great one. I think the veil is interesting.

That looks like a nice lot of coins and a nice Constantine I posthumous. I see a few in that lot that look promising. Here is my Constantine I posthumous coin of the same type. I purchased it from a friend here.  |
