Here's one that I'd always meant to make a write-up for but never did. A fun 3D temple! I haven't done it any favors with the photos though......
With the radiate crown on the obverse bust... it’s not Constantine. Probably Gallienus or ClaudiusII! If you post better photos we can let you...
Oooh! I like Quintillus' ugly coins for some reason... I guess it's just because how short and insignificant his reign was. Here's my favorite. I...
Ya know... these may have been considered ugly at the time but I think this one looks pretty cool now. I'd drive this one... if it could stay...
My first thought after seeing the portrait was Caracalla... I’m not sure but we’re both in what I suspect to be the right time frame. IDing the...
Collecting coins is great, collecting great memories and experiences with family is greater! Looks like fun!
Almost certainly Tetricus I IMP C TETRICVS P F AVG SPES PVBLICA RIC 136
It’s not that people don’t want to help... it’s just that if we can’t be certain one way or the other, people don’t comment. I think you should...
Actually it is Maximinus Daia as Caesar Cyzicus mint. On my phone at lunch so can’t search for the reverse legend easily... more information from...
haha.... yeah only 1 out of 10 for me too. That was a hard one. However, there are attributes for certain emperors that tend to extend across...
Arles is another scarcer mint that we haven't seen yet in this list. [ATTACH] Constantine I as Augustus 316 A.D. Æ Follis Obverse: IMP...
Oooh I like that cape! This one is not that fancy... in fact, it's pretty common. But! It's my nicest Licinius Sol. The surfaces are really slick...
Yeah, the mint of Siscia for these types seems to be much scarcer than other types (to me, maybe I’m wrong). It seems that the further east you go...
Here's a rarer one from Siscia: [ATTACH] Constantine I Siscia - 317 A.D. Obverse: IMP CONSTANTINVS P F AVG, laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust...
Hi Tim, Yes, they all appear to be Roman coins. The two coins with two soldiers and one or two standards would have the reverse legend of GLORIA...
Wow, nice post! I'm due to finally get organized myself. Organization along with a serious effort at getting good (non-phone) pictures... is...
Wow! That Claudius II coin is so nice, it doesn’t look like a Claudius II coin! Haha... seriously though, I have a soft spot for CII, that’s a...
I just use my email. I build an email for each coin including purchase information, attribution information, pictures of other similar coin...
Cast - the devices look mushy and rounded. It looks soft and just “feels” like a cast. Especiallly the reverse. Just my opinion.
I don’t see I problem with it either... but I am not an expert. At one time, adding a clear lacquer to coins with rough or porous surfaces was...
