FVRIVS RVFVS Pillar of the Community United States 3446 Posts	Posted 09/10/2014 8:14 pm Very nice. One of the 'handsome' variety of Claudius portraits (more like Germanicus) Some of the later portraits of Claudius are surprisingly unflattering ! I recently bid on and won a Nero As (Victory with shield) which type I already have. But the portrait is of a bearded rather 'grungy' looking Nero. I couldn't resist ....... So very soon I will have two ! Report this Post to the Staff
Dutchgulden Pillar of the Community Netherlands 1204 Posts	Posted 09/11/2014 1:20 pm Thanks, I already got the same Claudius (RIC097) but like you're saying furius, this one has a very nice portrait comparing it to other ones. Lets present Nero soon then, I'm curious! Report this Post to the Staff
