I received seven Roman coins from my sister-in-law as a Christmas gift last year and haven't been able to figure out what they are. She didn't know anything about them either. If possible could someone let me know what they are possibly the value. Also forgive me for the LQ picture, all I have is an iphone camera. Plus some of the coins are pretty rough conditions.
Some guesses: CONSTANTINE II AS CAESER Constantius as AUGUSTUS Constantinopolis n Victory shield/Constantine I/Thessalonica Aurelian / Concordia Sol dragging captive VALENS AE ANTONINIANUS. TETRICUS Follis Constantine the Great
I know it's an old thread but no one ever responded. There seems to be a lot more ancient collectors in the forum than there was went I first posted this. Any ideas? I dont really collect ancients but I'd like to update my records before I move next month for insurance purposes.
It would be better to post them one at a time per post and put the full image in the post. I think you will have a better chance now.
I can take better pics when I get back home. My coin photography skills were abysmal back then. They are up to mediocre now.
0308 image is Roman Emperor Constans 0295 image is possibly Roman Emperor Elagabalus 0292 image is definitely Diocletian Good luck Charles
295 is Constantine II; 303 may be Gratian but that photo needs work; 313 is Constantine I. The rest have been covered, right? I would not suggest insuring them.
Oh I'm not actually taking out a policy but it would be nice to have an accurate inventory of what I own before I move
