If I had seen this coin in auction, you would have had serious competition 🙂 The other coins are great too, but this one really caught my eyes. Thank you. It's one of the best-preserved bronzes of Aelia Flaccilla that I've seen. I don't believe that it's been on the market since the Goldberg auction in 2013. I was very lucky to get it: I bought it from Kirk Davis, who must be one of the very last retail dealers who does most of his business through printed catalogues that he mails out several times a year rather than on the Internet. I emailed him the same evening I received the catalogue to ask if this coin was still available, and it was. A lot of his coins sell within a few days, so one has to move fast! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
