He isn't the only one who likes Late Roman Denarii.
Really awesome coin!
Does any one have one from Diocletian? That would be the cherry on the cake!

Very nice indeed !

Sear lists the As denomination for Probus and several other late emperors but (excepting Aurelian) in 40 years of collecting I have yet to see one ! the same goes for the AE denarius ! I would assume this little gem would command a tidy sum at auction !

That is a really great coin. I bought one not so long ago, not as nice as this but close, for a VERY cheap price. What I actually received was a mangled envelope inside a plastic wallet from the post office that said "awfully sorry we lost the contents". Got my money back from the seller, but I would rather have got the coin. :(
