Vespasian Denarius. Reverse Jupiter standing. 69-79 AD Obverse: IMP CAESAR VESPASIANVS AVG Reverse: OVIS CVSTOS Is it genuine? I know next to nothing about Roman coins, but it looks very good compared to other examples at reputable dealers. Maybe a little too good? The weight looks about right.

I used to have a few when I first collected as a teenager. The Victorian rupees were much more affordable than the British version. It was a cheaper way to the the young head and the gothic head. If I collect empire coins again, I would want a Straits Settlements dollar. Both the reverse and obverse are very nice.

If I were ever to collect world coins, these Empire coins of India would definitely tick the box! Especially when you think about how far back the British/Indian ‘relationship’ goes through the East India Company!

And it's AU! https://ebay.io/m/3QCHg2

Just in case you were disappointed at missing this one, he has sold two and has another two remaining...

I also noticed a spelling mistake in the seller description…‘certified’ has been spelled incorrectly. I’m pretty certain that either the buyer or seller would need to be certified?

Often when Una and the Lion's are mentioned, you first imagine gold! For me, it will always be this gorgeous silver pattern piece I had the chance to photograph. Stunning rainbow toning, never seen anything like it.
