    good stuff

    I just picked up a Titus elephant denarius that I'm happy enough with to complete the 12 caesars set (not that upgrades won't take place) so it'll be time to head into these adoptive emperors pretty soon, and then onto the year of 5 emperors image

    Congrats. Ive always liked that type but never could justify the price most go for.

    The adoptive era is my favorite. Plentiful, lots of variety, good silver.

    Good luck on the 5 emperors, that will be tough. Even hardcore collectors dont have that complete.
