Hughie Dwyer Posted October 28, 2023 · Member Share Posted October 28, 2023 (edited) Nice coin @expat! I'll get the ball rolling. I have a coin of Caracalla from when he was in his teens, but I posted that recently in another thread. Instead, I'll post another coin I have of him, which I haven't shown for quite a while...
