I was going through some coins I threw in a "to be identified" folder I put away many years ago and came across this one: Follis of Tiberius II...
Just got in this interesting Faustina AR Denarius. I don't know why but the simplistic reverse makes for a very appealing coin. Faustina I AR...
When it comes to coins of the Roman Empire, along with Greek kings and cities, there is certainly a large and varied selection of issues shown on...
I put this away quite a while ago and I'm just not sure how to describe it. Here it is: Roman Republic : P. Satrienus, 77 BC, Ae Denarius (?)...
I'm not particularly interested in countermarks on Greek Ae issues, but this coin is a bit more interesting than the many others I have seen. When...
I posted this 16mm Justinian Ae decanummium of Carthage a while back. An interesting variety with a large christogram on his breast. [ATTACH]...
Came across this coin a while ago and would appreciate some help with the proper identification. It certainly looks like an obol of Hadrian but...
I was going through some coins I put away many years ago for identification and came across this Constantine reduced follis type from Ostia. It's...
Picked up this coin in a small lot a while back. An interesting type but who would even consider putting this very modern identification stamp on...
Just came across this Anonymous Follis that I put away probably 10 years ago and forgot all about. It's an interesting variety and I hope someone...

I picked this Trajan Alexandrian Tetradrachm up at the FUN show today but I can't seem to find a reference for it. It's not in Emmett or any of...
This coin should be easy but it has me stumped. The obverse shows a bust of Poseidon with an ornamented trident reverse, very similar to the type...
Spent the day at the FUN show. Saw some very interesting and rare ancients, none of which I could afford, but I did come away with some nice...
This coin should be so easy but I just can't find the match to it. Obviously a Seleukid type of (most likely) Antiochos I with bust of Apollo on...
These two are kind of aggravating me. One is extremely nice and the other has a distinctive reverse design, but I can't seem to identify either....
I bought this item probably 20 years ago but put it away because I just wasn't sure if it was ancient or a modern fake. I was following the...
I'm normally pretty decent with provincials but this is the second one in the last few weeks that has me baffled even though there's quite a bit...
Been a while since I've given away a coin so I guess it's overdue. This one is a 27mm Tetradrachm of Trajan Decius from Antioch with the eagle...
I give up. I've tried to identify this 16mm bronze for over a week and haven't found anything even close. It should be easy except I just brushed...
