VERY nice John. Love the detail on the reverse.

 

That's a very strong coin, beautiful. Here's mine...

 

Very nice John..really good details on both sides of this coin..

 

Very attractive pickup! here's my only VRBS ROMA (sorry for the crap photo could have sworn I had a better one...).

From Siscia:


While not a city commemorative from this series, my Ostrogothic half follis has basically the same design and theme (commemorating the city of Rome).

 

nice urbs romas everyone. ENG, it's cool how your wolf almost looks "segmented", and there is a dcrease in this from top to bottom in the above posts (maybe ware to some extent).

 

Here is a group I got recently. However, the Romulus and Remus coin was the LEAST desired of this group. Anyone want to guess which coin I bought this coin for?

 

I will hazard a guess at the Constans

 

Whichever one it was I will gladly take the other 3

 

Yeah, anepigraphic bronzes are tough to come by. I also have bought others from this seller, and expect it will look better in hand. The Urbs Roma is a throwaway, but I also liked the Helena some as well, with the more stylized portrait.

 

Nice coins VK, i really like the half follis

Medorman all 4 of those coin are great, i'm sure many of us would love to have any of them, the lite green tan patina is a plus..

 

that one is very cool...but i like all 4 however. that "throw away" is pretty sweet, nice big flan.

 

Very nice, some great details!

 

Isn't the anepigraphic a Constantius II?

 

Very well could be sir. I don't have it in hand yet, so haven't yet tried to attribute it. Plus, I really don't collect Roman coins.

 

Great upgrade Eng! Very attractive, nice details!

It was new word for me so thought I would post this An·ep·i·graph·ic; kinda catchy, but not legendary

 

Lol, pretty good.

 

Eng => dats a sweet lookin' sucklin' wolf!! (congrats)

Here is my good ol' momma wolf

 

Ya Steve, i love that coin...

 

Here is one of min from Siscia
