                                Description

     This piece was minted in 117 AD, during the reign of Hadrian, who
     ruled from 117-138 AD. Hadrian is famed as the emperor who built
     Hadrian's Wall, the massive fortification erected across the
     northernmost British frontier of the empire to defend against
     marauding Scots and Picts. He is also known for his extensive
     travels throughout the empire. The obverse of this type depicts
     the laureate bust of Hadrian facing right, drapery on far
     shoulder, with legends IMP.CAES.TRAIAN.HADRIANO.AVG.DIVI.TRA. The
     reverse features Pietas standing left, raising right hand, with
     legend PIETAS across, and PARTH.F.DIVI.NER.NEP.P.M.TR.P.COS. Coin
     grades a nice VF, with clear to bold devices, most legends
     visible, and an attractive portrait of Hadrian. A pleasing
     example of this first year type of Hadrian, catalouged as
     RSC-1023b. All coins guaranteed genuine without limitations.
     Buyer pays postage/insurance, coin shipped on clearance of funds.
     PA residents please add appropriate sales tax. Visa/MC now
     accepted for purchases over $20. Member ANA, PAN. For more

If you're the seller or the high bidder - now what?

  1. Contact each other. The seller (praetorian) and the high bidder
     (charlottebr) should contact each other within three business days to
     discuss payment and shipping details.

  2. Leave feedback for the other party once the the seller has received
     the payment and the winning bidder has received the item.
     Leave feedback to seller - Leave feedback to bidder.

Details for the seller and high bidder(s):
The seller should contact the winning bidder(s) with information on the
total cost, including shipping, and where to send payment. The winning
bidder(s) must pay the seller directly for the item(s), and it is the
seller's responsibility to fulfill the order when payment terms are met.
The binding contract of the auction is between the winning bidder and the
seller.

If the seller is unable to establish contact with the high bidder within 3
business days, the seller may contact the next highest bidder. Therefore,
if the high bidder does not contact the seller within 3 business days of
the end of the auction, he/she may lose the place as winning bidder, and be
at risk for receiving negative feedback and/or a Non-Paying Bidder warning,
both of which can ultimately lead to suspension from eBay.
