I got a new one, number 3 in my collection.

It is bronze 19mm 2.51g. In the hand it looks like toned silver.

Also in the hand it looks like the seller's pictures with one or two red deposits:

My pictures, however, show that there are many more red deposits on both sides. The reverse looks as though it could be cleaned at high mag, but I don't intend to.

Not sure whether it was double struck, or dirty.

Nice one P.P.

I like this guy's pointed nose. I'll have to look him up to see what sort of an Emperor he was.

He was Emperor for less than a year if I remember correctly.

He wasn't around long enough to issue a lot of coins so it's always nice to find one of his. Nice coin.
