I don’t have many of my Arcadius coins photographed but here are a few. I can add some more a bit later. Here’s one reportedly from 383Ad...
Great topic. I have this rough sestertius of Trajan from late 98 ad. [ATTACH] Trajan February - Autumn 98, Rome. IMP CAES NERVA TRAIAN AVG GERM...
Just noticed that that Sol coin is a Constantine II CLARITAS REIPVBLICAE rather than the more usual Constantine SOLI INVICTO COMITI coin. Nice...
That's a great coin! I have yet to get any Victorinus CONSECRATIO coins. I recently received this coin. I really like it. As you know with...
Thank you! The rest of the coin has some issues but that portrait is one of my favorites of all of my coins. I agree those sideburns and mustache...
Great coin Doug! It gives me the opportunity to pull out my two best coins from the same issue. …but no Valerius Valens for me either! [ATTACH]...
Nice coins everyone! I like these coins and have many of them. Somehow though, I haven’t taken pictures of many of them. Here’s one that I...
Here is mine I mentioned earlier. Not a great image but it will work. I haven’t tried cleaning the obverse of this coin up because it has a bit...

New photo looks good! I also like the macro shots. It’s so much fun to dive into the details really close up sometimes. I’ve been thinking on...
No ideas from me… I’m terrible with Byzantine or post-western empire coinage but I like learning so pop into all threads and will be following...
Images are missing
Great coins @maridvnvm ! I love FH coins! Glad to see a couple threads about them lately. Trier is the only mint I’m missing for both CII and CG....
I think I have a similar portrait attributed to Rome... but mine has better sideburns. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Quintillus - FORTVNA REDVX - Rome - RIC...

Can safely say not Denver or Philadelphia.
Interesting post! I personally don’t think your Siscia coin and the Milan gold portrait look very similar… but that’s just my snap opinion....
Speaking of strange investments… My brother makes (friendly) fun of me for my hobby being the trading of perfectly good money for money that has...
