This one was vexing since I'm not very experienced with Roman Imperials. It's from a mixed lot (Goldberg, Sept. 2013), many of which I never got...
I love those! It and a couple other Pontos coins are on my list. Another nice pickup :)
x = vlaha's age 3x= TIF's age y = # of vlaha tets 3y = # of TIF tets Looks about right to me, junior. :D (and make that "scoring two R4s from a...
