You have all showed marvelous coins. Although his reign was rather short, Tacitus minted many great coins. Zumbly, which entry is your coin from...
No, you can see by the position of the XI in the center of the exergue and also by the soft deposits that make the patina in front of the first X.
The double-antoniniani/aureliani of Tacitus is a denomination made of billon with twice the silver content than the usual post-reform...
Also a great example for Ambianum. I also noticed what Doug Smith is saying about the double-maiorinae of this mint being struck on narrow flans...
Mikey Zee's Ambianum chi-rho is very nice. Is it possible to have diameter and weight?
Yes, the obv legend can be understood as IMP(erator) C(aesar) CLAVDIVS AVG(vstvs). On your coin the L looks like a C because of the deposits. As...
Hi, 7Calbrey, your coin is RIC 219, obv legend is actually IMP C CLAVDIVS AVG. You can find it here: http://www.ric.mom.fr/en/coin/1088
This one is quite a rare one. I recognize this particular spec, you bought it from Victor's Imperials on Vcoins, didn't you :)
Here's some more interesting correspondence: First coin is Gallienus (which Goebl assigns to Cyzicus, problematic because during Gallienus - and...
Unfortunately I did not win this one. I was hoping it'd go a bit unnoticed but no chance. Anyways, he who won it definitely knew what he was going...
Sorry, I think I might have misspoken, as I did not read all of madame Estiot's articles. I noticed however that she willingly accepts Jerome...
Maxentius as Caesar is also very rare I've only seen 2 others and none available for purchase.
Hello all, A couple of weeks ago, this coin was won at auction with a price of ~ 735$: MAXENTIUS AE 7.57g Follis/Nummus AV: MAXENTIVS PRINC...
Hello all, I have some interesting and rather cheap coins available for either sale or trade. In case of sale, please add 5$ for Registered Mail...
I think it's quite normal for Augustus coins to be more frequent from western mints, as Constantius was Augustus in the West. But that one of...
This is a very nice Constantius as Augustus, considerably scarcer than his issues as Caesar.
I think that it is probably an artistic license of the die cutter :)
Hi, yours is minted in Cyzicus, mid – September 270, most likely http://www.ric.mom.fr/en/coin/977 RIC Temp #977. Very nice coin.
My understanding is that the difference is one of style and chronology. Smyrna is S. Estiot's localization of the so-called Asia mint of the late...
