Wow! That's a knockout sestertius! It's so good that it looks like an exquisite high relief oak carving because of the beautiful toning! Love it when ancient coins tone like fine aged wine!

Agree with you friend,  these brown bronzes smell like hazelnuts and are tasty like a bitter-sweet synphonie of chocolate  ;D
