At this rate, I feel like I should buy the postman dinner. This denarius arrived today. Perfectly centered strike and lovely tone.

Really great!  I love how Republican coins portray the joints of horses.  Wish mine was this nice...

I also had a C.Junius C.F. new arrival. Picture below. It seems they made these coins to a high standard. This is my nicest dioscuri denarius, bar none.
