Andreas,

I very much like the previous three but this latest coin is GREAT! You get 2 cool emperors for the price of one ;) You know my mailing address, right?

Added a very rare Gordianus Pius Sestertius to my gallery. It is one of the rarest Sestertii of this emperor:

Very nice coin with a great story to tell.... Woe to the vanquished! They have to listen to the pontifications of Trajan!   :)

A famous type on coins of Septimius Severus:


Legio XIIII Gemina Martia Victrix was an elite legion which gained its fame by defeating Queen Boudicca in 61 A.D. At the end of the 2nd century it was stationed in Carnuntum (Austria) and it was the first legion to declare for Severus.
