Hello guys,

I bought 2 denari of Hadrian but I will only keep 1. (2 is too much for me)
What is your opinion about these coins? Which one should I keep? Are these coins valueable in such state?

nr 1 3,15g, 19mm DIONYSOS Hadrian

2-Hadrian-Denari
2-Hadrian-Denari

nr 2 2,88g, 17mm

2-Hadrian-Denari

2-Hadrian-Denari

Number two has a more artistic portrait and number one has the Roma seated reverse which I have always been partial to. If you are a beginner the portrait is probably more important. Both have their positives.

Well they both date the same 119-120 AD, and condition and value are the same. So flip a coin, heads keep #1 trails keep #2.

All things being equal, (which they are not), the first one has a slightly higher value overall, for one reason only:
the legends are complete.
