I found this forum through that particular thread on another forum. It actually unintentionally served as a form of advertising. While I still...
I agree, a really fascinating insight about the coinage of Victorinus.
While doing a search on acsearch.info, approximately 30 S 1260 (Justinian II, Constantinople) and 20 Leo III (1514) coins came up, covering about...
Or, are folles of Justinian II, Constantine IV and Leo III (the pre XXX/NNN Leos) being diverted to auction houses? I'd guesstimate that SCL 40...
Still, a heckuva good deal for 22.50. I bought a pretty nice one from Jon Subak years ago, IIRC, and picked some halfway decent ones from 1990s...
A most excellent deal. I don't have Sear open for the exact number, but that is the smaller module issue, correct? 882 was the one on the big...
That's a pretty nice one. I'd like to get a nice one of S882, but opportunity cost comes up; for the same price, I can get a Seleucia or a rarer...
During the reigns of Constantine IV through Leo III, AE issues of Syracuse seem to far outstrip that of Constantinople. One might see a 40 Nummia...
is the 200 pound sterling vcoins Basiliscus AE4 a real one? Not implying either way. It's just one of those coins where one has to use...
Well, I checked off Macrianus and Leo III.
The History of Byzantium podcast has reignited my interest in Byzantine coinage; at least up to 711. I'll have to open my Byzantine Sear to see...
Things had changed during Gallienus' time,but wouldn't a SPQR mintmark in Anatolia make sense? After all, Asia was a senatorial province.
I downloaded some of the book's chapters. Wait, there were Heraclius 40 nummi with the Theup mintmark?!
Thank you; I'll go check out the site. Is there any hoard evidence to approximately what front these enigmatic coins came from. Officina A sure...
I've always been fascinated by the enigmatic Grierson's 'Rome style' folles. Although I don't have it in front of me, I have a Maurice Tiberius...
Or by the fourth century could barter have surpassed a monetary economy in areas outside the cities? Thus, it wouldn't be as important if the AEs...
That Macedonian AE looks a lot like the same type as my first coin :wideyed::woot:
Hmm, thanks. I'll go take a look.
Very interesting, sand. Yes, I've read the Edict before; a most fascinating document. I believe Julian also used the word 'greed' when...
No, dougsmit, like horrendous in rock crusher/I have to use my imagination to determine what it is. It would be in poor grade. The Macedonian...
