It’s the same situation with my Roman Republic and Roman Imperial collections.
 

I currently own 50 Roman Republic coins and 42 Roman Imperial coins. My Republic denarii tend to be higher quality in comparison to my Imperial denarii, as the Republic collection is my #1 priority.

Nice display and excellent collectible coins Ray. 

Your mid-third century pieces, unlike the poor examples often shown, are quite high quality silver!

Spectacular collections!

Truly Amazing, as always great presentation. The equilibrium between my Roman Imperial and Greek / Roman Provincial collections are always in flux based on what coins are available. Right now I'm around 230+- RIC and 300+- Greek / Roman Provincial. It doesn't help that I have a lot of RIC multiples that I need to sell which will bring that collection down to 200 or less.

It looks fantastic presented in this way, two very impressive collections!
