Misc Coins from my collection

Some other coins I enjoy

This area of my collection proves just how difficult.....well, ok, IMPOSSIBLE ....it is for me to totally avoid branching out into other areas of collecting. I always say that I concentrate on Tetrarchy, Caracalla, and Constantine era coins, but when I start going through dealer's trays at a show, I always seem to come across other coins that just BEG to come home with me.

I guess that when it comes right down to it, I'm just a guy that can't say "No" ; )
