Titus Caesar Plate COTD
« on: July 10, 2021, 04:01:32 am »
Although I collect all coins Flavian, I systematically collect the silver issues. So, I was quite thrilled to win several long sought after denarius 'white whales' at a recent auction. The following coin was by far the most important of them all: A personal grail/white whale with the additional benefits of being a RIC plate coin and one of the finest specimens of the type known and previously owned by the renowned Flavian collector Harry Sneh. I'm simply overjoyed!

Needless to say I'm quite thrilled with this new addition! Easily it will make my Top Ten List for the year.
