Exceptional portrait of Tacitus
« on: August 04, 2019, 01:37:05 pm »
After taking new pictures of my whole collection I would really like to share with you this Tactitus.
In my opinion, a great and very stylish portrait of this short-ruling emperor

I particularly like the neck beard on this one but I've enjoyed all your uploads over the past few days

That is an outstanding coin in every way Julianus of Pannonia. EF and well struck with an exceptional portrait, bold legends and a crisp detailed reverse. Any collector or institution would love to own it. Including me!

A great showcase coin for sure.

Best regards,

Steve
