Here is a group of coins with an interesting little gem- it is a Vandal civic issue from Carthage minted during the reign of Gelimer or Huneric.

Here is another example I just got. It was described as having an artificial sand patina and listed as ex. ROMA Numismatics. They did not apply the sand patina, but had some consignments in a few auctions from Athena Numismatics. I will leave the patina as is, since I am not selling this one.
