antwerpen2306 Pillar of the Community Belgium 1194 Posts	Posted 10/26/2017 11:38 am many denarii of Geta are well centered with clear details but I am worry about the reverse . It looks strange to me , especially the R V , but it is difficult to say with this photo .As Finn said , where did it come from ? Size is ok , weight normally around 3.3 gr , but it is acceptable .How is the edge ? I think you may be optimist . albert Report this Post to the Staff
