Ancient Roman denarius of Hadrian
I managed to pick up this beautiful denarius of Emperor Hadrian last week and at a good price too. :)
The writing around the edge of the obverse says:
“IMP CAESAR TRAIAN HADRIANUS AUG”
I love the toning on it! Especially the reverse.
Hopefully I can pick up denarii of Trajan, Marcus Aurelius and Antoninus Pius next!

Re: Ancient Roman denarius of Hadrian
Yup..we all hate it.
So for .50 I will take it off of your hands so you never have to look at it again
Admittedly I can VERY much appreciate a piece of history like this. I just do not know enough about ancient coins and collecting them to know its anything more than an ancient Roman coin (and...wall...oops...typo...well...I do know who Hadrian was).

Re: Ancient Roman denarius of Hadrian
If you keep it up I might start on them one of these days start myself. They have always intrigued me, but I am focusing on other areas at present like finishing my Walkers.Fair enough xD. I was just sharing in case maybe there were some lovers of Ancient Roman history here. lol

Do it! Nothing says you can't collect two things at once.Earle42 wrote: ↑Thu May 27, 2021 2:55 pmIf you keep it up I might start on them one of these days start myself.

I collect US, Ancient Greek & Ancient Roman.
Or you could try and finish your Walker set and then move on to it.
So many options. ^_^

Re: Ancient Roman denarius of Hadrian
Well...writing a 2nd (possibly splitting it into two) reference book in the glass insulator hobby, working/building/organizing my wood shop, restoring/learning/starting to play with my metal lathe (in the process of getting a milling machine), and finally finding a way to get a source of primers for reloading ammo kind of gets in the way at timesDo it! Nothing says you can't collect two things at once.
