    Just so I understand it - the bottom part of the oval is the "U" field mark and the top part are pieces of the standards that connected, making the oval shape?

    I was using a generalization. Most of my collecting focus is BCE. :)

    TBC, nice use of Late Roman Bronze Coinage by Carson, Hill and Kent. I have an old library copy which I picked up many years ago. Great book.
    Like many of you I just can't pass up a really good specimen of the Constantinian era coinage. They are a bargain. Anyone that collects coins should have one in their collection.

    Cheers to all
