I've waited a long time to get this scarce last issue of Maximinus Thrax.

https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-150101

It allows me to finish my virtual tray of "The Year of the Six Emperors."

I hope you enjoy it!

Re: Nemo's Gallery - A very rare Vespasian and a scarce Titus denarius added
« Reply #345 on: October 23, 2018, 07:50:25 pm »
I finally added a scarce early issue of Titus as Augustus to my collection, only two specimens in the Reka Devnia Hoard.

https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-150184

Even more exciting was getting one of the rarest of Vespasian's dynastic types. Worn but still with a clear portrait of Vespasian and both Titus and Domitian visible on the reverse.

Enjoy,

I love the dynastic denarius. I almost bid on one of these a couple of weeks ago. You have just given me another one for my list.
