You're welcome John. Wish I could have done more. Here is my Boeotia coin: [ATTACH] BOEOTIA FEDERAL COINAGE AR Hemidrachm OBVERSE: Boeotian...
I probably would have guessed at Constantius II, but since little brother has already picked that one, I will say Gratian.
I need a clue.
I've never been able to put much faith into "academic" anything. My son the PhD will be the first to tell you that "academics" can and do make...
I like your new addition, but I have to admit I try to stay away from these since they seem to be faked often enough. Yet, I still own one:...
Congratulations. I hope it's your dream job, but if not, I hope it's a stepping stone to that end.

The reverse is an "open rose". Can you make out any of the letters?
Thanks Doug. I looked at Maximianus, but didn't see it. Yeah, these are common enough. I was able to get this one and a Diocletian, year 4,...
