Andreas,

No, definitely talking about the Balbinus sestertius.

I don't believe it is posted by itself.

Hi Potator,

thanks, yes it is a double sestertius but this description reminds me of Decius Double Sestertii, so I only use "Sestertius".


Mark,

Thanks a lot for your great comments!

Here comes the next Sestertius from Commodus:
It has a dark green patina and a realistic portrait.

Andreas,

That is nice!

Why is it that these provincials seem to have more character than their imperial counterparts?
