Have taken what I believe are better pictures of most of my collection. Already uploaded all those for which I already had a file in the gallery (basically all with black/dark background). The remaining ones with white/clear background I was more or less pleased with, and conscious of time I am leaving those unchanged at the moment.
As part of the same exercise I photographed the remaining of my collection (what shown here currently is around 50%), and will be creating files and posting those over the next couple of weeks.

Thanks carthago, glad you liked it!
It certainly called me, for the style of the obverse, and what it looks like an ethereal Victory on reverse  :)

What will most probably be last purchase of the year, a denarius of Julia Soemias that caught my eye for the nice and serene portrait on the obverse.

Obv. IVLIA SOAEMIAS AVGVSTA, draped bust right.
Rev. IVNO REGINA, Iuno standing front, head left, holding palladium and sceptre.
RIC IV, 2, p. 48, 237 (C) (ex-Auctiones, auction e11, lot 75).
