    Here is another Ancient coin I can not identify. I believe this is an ancient Rome. Can you help ?

    It has a CONSTANTINOPOLIS obverse, and a GLORIA ROMANORVM reverse. Are you sure you spliced the pictures correctly?

    Yes! You're right. That helmeted bust. Two different coins.

    Ardatirion, The reverse would have the She wolf and twins or Victory. Correct?

    You guys are really sharp. I could say I was just testing you, but not so. I just screwed up. Thanks for setting me straight.

    This is the obverse for the error posting. I was not going to post this coin because the obverse does not look legible.
