I think you're absolutely correct. The bust features are identical and the individual letters of the legend line up precisely the same to both the...
I thought you were kidding but I have a box with mixed Romans and Provincials and my Magnentius was right next to a Hadrian Provincial. I guess...
@TIF : You're going to convert me to provincials with that Gallienus octagonal wall coin. Love it. Thought I might as well throw in a bridge...
Welcome to the group! Glad to help.
The key to me is the legend on the right side (the full legend is definitely split). The lettering is somewhat large and there's only room for a...
The legend may not be perfect but there's little doubt it's Johannes. Style, portrait and legend details fit this Emperor exactly. I actually...
Couldn't agree more. Great coins and interesting people, what more could you ask for. Here's one more scarcer type from Constantine I and I...
Nice Campgate pics; one of my favorite reverses. I've posted the closed-door varieties previously but never the matching (and tough to find)...
@zumbly : Super coin. Tough to find them so well-centered. I normally see them with the dolphin nose or tail missing. Here's another Tarentum...
@ancientcoinguru @Theodosius : I suspect we were all milling around the same little ancients area all day at the show. Would definitely have liked...
The folles of Nicomedia I believe are the largest of the Justinian coins ranging from around 41 to 45mm, and are certainly the largest issue I...
I will certainly be at the FUN show next January and may even have a table there (have done this show a few times but actually much prefer to go...
I can only give my opinion on this coin, and it's just that .. an opinion. If you look at all examples and styles of Athalaric monograms there is...
One of my favorite coins of Augustus featuring Drusus and Tiberius: [ATTACH] Augustus Denarius, Lugdunum (Lyon) Ox: Bare head right; AVGVSTVS...
Thanks to all. That closes the description for the coin. And as an engineer I had to take a core course in doohickey analysis, so I do understand.
When you do this long enough you'll find coins you once owned showing up at all sorts of different venues. This one was in a job lot at the...
Thanks Mat! I knew I've seen it somewhere. Much appreciated. And yeah, I just liked that odd countermark. Need to find that now.
I am tired of looking at this coin and thought someone could help me out. I bought it because of the counterstamp (which I haven't quite found...
If you want a best guess try this coin (same size and weight): KINGS of CILICIA. Philopator. Veiled and turreted bust of Tyche right / Athena...
It appears people on differing cleanliness aisles can still be friends.
