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...

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]...

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...

A very fun read, thank you! I have one of these that I'll take a picture of later tonight and add. Gallienus is one of those emperors that in...
@7Calbrey in case you weren’t sure, I think yours is Antioch mint with maybe an ANB mint mark. How do I know? I bought your coin’s emperor cousin...
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...
