That spec is from East Anglia. And here is a rather rare early variation for Decius, from the autumn of 249, employing the short legend type that...
For around 3 months now I have considered venturing into Jewish coinage but have not taken the step yet. Such interesting little things.
How did I miss this post. I think that OP coin is Guillaume IX rather than Guillaume X. Why? Mostly the style and the overall design -- the...

Looks perhaps like a kantharos? [ATTACH]

It's certainly possible but I'm not 100% sure. Thing is I didn't see other examples of this issue with rosette diadem to make a comparison, just...

As usual, the best AE4 is an AE2 and the best AE2 is two AE2s. [ATTACH] Theodosius II from Crimea 22x18mm 4.22g [ATTACH] Valentinian III from...
