Latest Ancient

I have wanted a Julia Paula for close to a year now & finally acquired one. It has some wear but the price I got it at made it much more attractive. This is a big want I can finally scratch off my list.

Pics were taken with my iphone 3gs, best I can do and some photoshopping.

    I was surprised it took these pics. I try and do it with every ancient I get and some work and some dont.

    Congrats Mat. It always exhilarating to find a wanted coin. And a nice respectable one at that.
    And personally, I don't mind, and I even like, a little wear on my ancients. That shows it circulated among the people whose history I'm interested in.
    I collect history in the form of coins.
