Very nice coin with great eye appeal.
These late tetrarchy pieces are fascinating for the very peculiar styling.
The first 'Junta' with four generalissimos carving up the territories and the wealth.
I have been acquiring way too many myself in the last few months.
But when you have some patience they still can be found for relatively modest prices and the deals are out there !
