Very nice example of the Acilius type. There's some really good detail here.

2 new ancients have been added to my gallery.

First is after a year of hunting for the perfect example that met the top 3 things I looked for, I finally got a Horned Bust of Elagabalus, which for me is a big deal.

Next is a Limes Denarius of Faustina, I just wanted a Limes example and it being a empress.

Even though I already had a Gordian III in my collection I always loved the VICTORIA AETERNA reverse so I finally bought one. Its alot better then my other Ant. of him also.

Toning is really nice in hand as the photo partly shows.

I understand so well how much it is of a favorite, being myself an absolute fan of Plautilla (see here for more : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=1003&page=1&sort=ta )

BTW Hilaritas is on the scarcer side as a reverse type : I have made a survey about Plautilla denarii and out of almost 500 of them only 58 had been minted in Laodicaea, 10 of them with a Hilaritas reverse. Very nice addition.

I really like the Axumite coin. I am happy with the example I have, being the first of the cross series, but would like to add one with a bit of the gilt still left on the cross like your example! Congrats. :)
