Its the letter F and the mint mark is AQS for Aquiliea

 

When the mints transitioned to the one-standard types, you also find varieties with a chi-rho on the banner, but I think the two-standard chi-rho coins are much rarer.

 

yes the chi rho on banner are very common, I have probably over 100 of them, but try and find one of these to buy.....it isnt as easy as some people might think. I think its because there was a very small window in 334 I think, although I'd have to check.. where they minted 2 standard with chi rho before moving to the 1 standard chi rho

 

Perhaps with a more common coin; I am not brave enough to risk this one. I'd rather leave as is.

 

Congrats on your stealth win, YOC

 

Cheers steve

 

The 'gem' arrived today... needed a light clean, but I am happy . Better pics to come, for now just a quick phone shot. it's got some nice silvering on it which is nice and the chi rho is sharp...another bonus.

 

Superb, congratulations!

 

Nice looking coin YOC

 

Excellent specimen, well done
