When I first started collecting, I basically snatched up anything that was affordable and identifiable. Vespasian was one of my first acquisitions. I've always wanted to upgrade as he is one of my favorite emperors. Finally, I found a higher grade at a decent deal. My pics aren't so good, the coin actually looks better in hand. A bit too shiny, but it should tone nicely in time.

A very nice upgrade indeed @travelcoin.

Yours are pretty cool too @DirtyHarry.

I was fairly happy with this original Seleucos I Nikator coin....

That always seems to be the case. We should actually keep some of the lower grade coins for comparison and "cool" factor that they got a lot of use 1000's of years ago.
