This one is a few months old, picked it up thinking it was Mamaea thanks to bad photos, it arrived and turned out to be Herennia Etruscilla. Either way it's a nice Sestertius.

    Nice coin Mat! Sometimes seller photos are so bad. There is one guy who sells a bajillion Probus coins that I would probably like to buy but his pictures are so bad that I can never make out what the coin even looks like. I have yet to buy from him and I have seen his postings for like a year.
