I like his galley-reverses. I think this could be reference to the Rhine fleet, which was stationed at Cologne. [ATTACH]
.... this one is made of relatively good silver, that is the best silver that was issued under Postumus. This coin and the one above, which is...
This Postumus - PAX AVG is nice too. It is a copper-alloy coin. What I don't understand is why there are relatively good silver coins and poor...
In keeping with the spirit of this thread, here is a common, inexpensive Postumus - MONETA AVG with a particularly charming portrait, where...
Wow, this really is a beauty. Especially the metal seems to be of unusually high quality. The typical Coriosolites stater is made from greyish and...
As wrote before, the coins of the Tetrici were inflation-issues, i.e. produced in a period of severe economic crisis. They were produced in large...
I'm done with Victorinus now. Here is my only Laelianus - VICTORIA AVG Antoninian. The coin was minted at Mainz in Germany. [ATTACH]
... and sometimes the reverse is nicer than the avers. [ATTACH]
This Victorinus - VIRTVS AVG is not much to shout about at first sight. However, the coin is special for its exceptional weight of 5.3 gr. The...
Here is a Victorinus - INVICTVS with some sort of countermark. [ATTACH]
Here is a particularly expressive portrait of Victorinus. Das anybody know what the V on the reverse stands for? [ATTACH]
This Victorinus - PAX AVG seems to have some kind of special bust. Note his unusually long hair and no drapery or garment on his shoulder. This is...
Another variant of Victorinus' bust (AEQUITAS AVG). On this coin he looks like Marius. [ATTACH]
Another interesting discovery. The following two Antoniniae are die-identical. They are also in the same state of preservation and I think that...
Another early Victorinus - PIETAS AVG, with near complete silvering and a FIDES MILITVM. The latter has Victorinus' full name, which is quite...
Great coin, excellent portrait and at under 10 Dollars a super bargain. The FIDES MILITVM reverse is scarcer than average I would say.
Interesting imitations. I like the Carausius/Victorinus overstrike. The left facing Tetricus was probably the result of the unskilled engraver...
Nope, I have never seen such a reverse. If it was a retarius it would have been quite something.
I think this is neither a bow nor a shield. The model was perhaps a PIETAS reverse and the coin may have been copied from a copy so that the...
This one came from the same source. The coin is near mint state, with most of its silvering preserved and a relief that is almost sharp to the...
Separate names with a comma.
