I picked up this AE3 tonight. I've been looking for this type, which is generally rough. I'm glad I waited it out - this example has full legends, mint mark, and great style in the prancing horse and emperor leaning backward in a grandstanding kind of way... Post yours if you've got one.
It comes in Honorius also. I like my horse's head better but you win the rest of the categories. Both are Cyzicus. Is yours also shop B?
Nice snag, JA ... I'm sure people will be bidding on that sweet pony Ummm, I don't have an AE example for Arcadius (*sigh*) => all I have is this cool AR Siliqua example ...
Hi friends. This coin of Arcadius was struck in Antioch. It's rated as scarce. RIC IX-69c. I didn't touch it.
hey, i bid on that you dirty dog! and here you are just rolling in that arcadius! it's an great little coin! i just got done telling my wife i was done buying coins online until the new year, but i had to sneak in a little bid on that one even on the wagon. glad it went to a good home! here's my consolation arcadius i picked up last week...
Hey, sorry about that Chris! Great detail on that facing bust, though - usually the faces on those types are pretty smushed.
ahahaha, chrsmat ... good times!! => man, is that a dirty Bulldog? (whatever it is => it made me smile)
