I’ll be the first to admit that my coin photos are not great... but for iPhone users, I have two free apps that I can recommend. The first,...
That's what I thought too as none of my 3rd century tetradrachms were silvered, even the ones in perfect condition. This coin most definitely...
Thank you TIF and Pellinore for the attribution help! I could tell there was some confusion out there as I was running into a different...
I just received this nice Aurelian tetradrachm in the mail. What's interesting about it is the silvering that remains. I have quite a few nice...
Like the western empire... the fifth century is where this thread will be lost to the ages. Haha...

Jovian - Sirmium RIC 119 [ATTACH] Jovian - Thessalonica RIC 234/5 - (the photo is pretty terrible (especially of the obverse) it actually looks...

Constans - Lyons RIC 96 [ATTACH] I've always liked the reverse figures on this coin. They are well done and show a lot of details... even to the...
I mentioned I'd post this one when it arrived as the Galerius version is a bit harder to find... but the coin arrived and it was a bit uglier than...
Sorry about the tetradrachms... mine has a similar weird edge to yours above. If not modern they are at least suspect. A fake report was never...
I didn't look too deeply into it because I'd bought the coin many months before cheaply and had only just gotten around to attributing it... I...
