Uncleaned coins, as they are available these days, are tough. Many of us here started with them and they were a fantastic way to get into the...
Looks like a nice OP coin! Taking photos under more light or daylight can reduce blur. Low light usually means a longer shutter speed and more...
Here’s a good example of a rarity that very very very few people would care about. The below coin is an unknown, unpublished variant of known...
Ugh… these drive me crazy. I have 4 or 5 of them that have been sitting on a tray for years because I haven’t been confident in who is on the...
While I have many nicer Gallienus and Salonina coins, I wanted to show here a few ugly ones that show Pietas. [ATTACH] Gallienus - PIETAS AVG -...
Nice coin! I’d love to get into collecting those but am split in too many directions already. If you do consider the other one later, make sure...
Sorta similar to my coin from Mysia Pergamon... maybe a direction to look! [ATTACH]
hmm... could be. I don't think it is though. BD is usually a lighter green and powdery. I think it's just mineralization that's found some...
Here's a few. I need to improve the photography. @IMP Shogun your photos are excellent! How do you take them to get dark coins to be lit so well?...
Looks like a match to me, nice find! Here's my Victorinus FIDES MILITVM coin. It's not a pretty coin but may be a reverse match to your second...
Nice coins! I love Alexandrian coins and have many but no Constantius coins yet so I'm jealous! Anyway, a few more references for you that gave me...

It’s very cool to have a coin that is shown in the Sear volumes. Congrats on that capture! Although we know any pricing information is pretty...
That’s a great coin at the top. Very rare and in great condition. I’d love to have one but fear I wouldn’t pay what it would take to get one!...
This photo is terrible at showing the true color of this coin but it’s similar to the OP coins and a bright blue/green. I have to agree with...
Interesting coin. I don’t have anything to add other than I’ve always been interested in the period but I just wish these small coins were better...
Who says 2000 year old bronze can’t be red?! [ATTACH] Maximinus II - Alexandria - RIC 139b
Thanks! Sorry all for the image dump but… I’ve been on a passive mission to get a Julian VOT coin from each mint (I think I’m missing 3, Cyzicus,...
Here’s one from the Rockbourne Hoard. Victorinus looking like Marius! [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
A few of my favorite Julian II coins. I have a bull but it’s ugly and a few other VOT reverse mints but unphotographed. [ATTACH] Antioch [ATTACH]...
