Surprisingly I didn't own any coins with a Moneta god reverse but now have one.

    That's very nice. 28mm is sizeable for these, no?

    I like Maximian's coins. They seem overlooked and I am able to pick up some nicer folli without much trouble. That piece is really nice. I do not think I have any issues from him as a Caesar either.
