An 8? Very nice. Is this L'an 8 on the reverse? Also the mint mark & engraver marks are on the reverse.
Not really. I could try looking it up but can't do this any better than you can. Knowing the mint mark on the reverse would be a help. Also the...

I forgot to hit reply with quote. Bright & cleaned were referring to a 1932-S Washington quarter someone posted here. On the Athenian tet I'd...

Very interesting coin. As you know Valerian was the father of Gallienus and I've been seeking to buy a Valerian for at least 4-5 years now. Note...
