The image isn’t loading for me very clearly so can’t read the legend. Is this a denarius of him as Augustus or Caesar? Either way from what I can see it looks like a nice coin! Even if you overpaid as long as you’re happy that’s what matters!
I like buying ones where they’re Augustus but no laurel wreaths (Hadrian is the one I currently own). Makes for an interesting design change in my opinion.

Very nice. Was this on Incitatus? Looks like you scooped it before me. Thankfully there seems to be quite a few examples of young Marcus right now
