Ummm curious? ...

=> is my choice that difficult, or is it so simple that nobody wants to step-up and guess?

 

A tiberius provincial?

 

Wow Steve, good win...

I going to make a stab at this..

Augustus - Nemausus..

 

From Clunia, Spain

 

Ahahaha => yup

Wow, that Mat dude is a clever bear, eh?!! (well done) ...

Oh, and good follow-up, iamtiberius ...

NOTE => I am currently at work, but I will definitely send-out my coin photos and full description later-on (sorry if my choice was a bit too easy ... ummm, or maybe you coin-heads are merely a bit too good at this game?)

Thanks, Eng

 

So what happens then when someone is right and so is someone else. I got the emperor while tiberius got the area?

 

It's all you. You got the important part

 

constantius ii? from...i don't now...siscia.

 

Constans...Trier

 

No to neither of you

 

Sorry I'm late with last round's wrap-up ... man, work always gets in the way!!

... anyway ...

=> here is last round's coin:

TIBERIUS AE As
Tiberius – Caesar 8-14 AD
Tiberius – Augustus 14-37 AD
Clunia, Spain
Diameter: 28 MM
Weight: 13.9 GRAMS
Obverse: TI CAESAR AVG F AVGVSTVS IMP, laureate head right, countermark of bull rushing right on Tiberius' neck
Reverse: L IVL RVF T CALD CON T POMP LON P IVL NEP IIII VIR, Bull facing left, CLVNIA above, countermark of eagle's head on bull
Other: AB-839 … RPC-456






Oh, and here is an example of my coin "without" the countermark (this example below is "not" my coin)

 

I would have guessed Jovian but we just had him.
(and worth the $45, if I were not on the wagon)

 

Valens?

 

Is that your answer, Doug? And no it isnt Jovian.

Nope, JW.

 

Clue time:

Refused to wear the insignia of the Pontifex Maximus

 

I feel since I genuinely didn't know this little bit of history, that I shouldn't answer.

 

That's clue makes it easy and, truly was my next guess. Now I have to wait till tomorrow or watch someone else get it right. Darn!
