Potator,

Needless to say that I am sick with envy at so many beautiful works of art not in my collection

Bravo and 5/5 to all!

You could practically add your entire collection to BOT, although many of us appreciate you not doing that!!

July 25th

Just added to BoT a few Plautilla denarii of mine :

RIC 269 : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-69817
RIC 362 : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-69818
RIC 366 : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-69815
RIC 369 : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-69816

And despite the fact they already had more than 200 views, a few comments and ratings, the pictures of the following were so crappy that I decided I would change them for better :

Mark Antony and Lucius Antonius denarius : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-69821
Severus Alexander denarius RIC 143 : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-69820
Carus posthumous antoninianus RIC 29 : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-69819

Enjoy

July 30th

Julius Caesar & Mark Antony denarius : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-69972
Magnentius Double maiorina (AE1) RIC 34 : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-69971

The J. Caesar & M. Antony is not, by far a perfect example, but it's a scarce type and a VF specimen seems a good start for this type to be displayed in BoT gallery IMO.

September 11th

I just happened to add the following to the BOT gallery :

Balbinus denarius RIC 7 : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-71491
Gordian III "ex Forvm" very heavy antoninianus RIC 153 : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-71490
Philip I sestertius RIC 153a : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-71488
Otacilia Severa sestertius RIC 202a : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-71487

Not sure they're worth staying for a long time, but none of them are represented yet.

September 18th

Two imperatorial coins :

Julius Caesar denarius : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-71711
Octavian denarius RIC 255 : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-71712

And three imperial denarii :

Julia Titi denarius RIC 387 (55a) : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-71715
Pertinax denarius RIC 13a : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-71714
Geta denarius RIC 15b : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-71713

In "honour" of the BoT gallery, I shot new pics, giving more accurately the colours and toning of the coins

November 6th

Thought some of the Divi series I have might be worthy of a BoT gallery addition. I have chosen the five I like the most. Future will tell if they stay there or not, along with others additions.

Titus antoninianus RIC 81b : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-73146
Nerva antoninianus RIC 83b : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-73145
Hadrian antoninianus RIC 87 : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-73144

Encouraged by a recent and resounding victory, I've posted a few new items in the BOT gallery.
Not sure they would remain on their seats in the occurence of a new battle though...
But they concur to keep the BOT gallery alive, so let them go !

ANTONINUS PIUS sestertius, RIC 618 : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-86562
LICINIUS I follis, RIC 101b : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-86564
VALENTINIAN I siliqua, RIC 13a : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-86565
THEODOSIUS IIsiliqua RIC 381 : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-86567

Best of luck to them, thanks to those who will vote.

Despite a shameful defeat with my Galeria Valeria, I'm not quite dead !

Added three more potential contestants to the BOT gallery

Gallienus sestertius, RIC # 209 : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-88444
Salonina sestertius, RIC # 46 : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-88443
Valerian II antoninianus, RIC # 24 : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-88445

Hi all,

Just added a very tiny AE4 for Arcadius. As I commented myself when posting in the "members galleries" thread devoted to my collection, the reason why I post this one here is that it seems those AE4 are seldom seen in very good condition, strike, centering and preservation

Arcadius AE4, RIC 18b : https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-94149

Hope you will like it
JC
