january1may Pillar of the Community Russian Federation 5172 Posts	Posted 02/11/2022 5:23 pm Awesome coin! Doug Smith, formerly active on CCF as @dougsmit, actively collected Emesa mint denarii of Septimius Severus (among many other coins); he has an extensive page on assorted early varieties, but I wasn't able to find yours on it. Not sure whether that means it's rare. Edited by january1may 02/11/2022 5:24 pm Report this Post to the Staff
