My first denarius towards a set of the 5 good emperors. Antoninus Pius, pretty easy to find nice, common type. I liked the portrait and the price for this one. Not exactly fine style, but nicely detailed.
His consecratio coin with the funeral pyre got me hooked on consecratios. Ironically enough he was buried not cremated. In many respects he was the best emperor Rome ever had.
