For many years I failed to find a fourree of the COSII group but then found this piece matching that shown by maridvnvm. I remain unconvinced...
Interesting that the article listed the Athenian dekadrachm as the Syracuse. I don't see any of these as potentially 'important' since none...
This is not the worst Alexandria mint coin I have seen. I even see NET at reverse left which identifies the reverse type.
#4 for me
The first one is clear from the legend and was made in the later, smaller size that did not start until after Constans was dead so you should get...
I have no idea why they issued the just dashes types but Elymais coins come in a number of styles including a few that almost have as much...
My first thought here would question if you know a particularly strongly struck example of the type without VIC GER that certainly proves that all...
I'm no expert but when I am looking at a monogram, I try to account for why someone included each element. Here we have a P and what appears to...
5 has always been a favorite of mine. Look again at the coin. It clearly reads ZK not EK so it is year 27 not 25. Did you by chance cut and...
hotwheelsearl makes a good point here. Coin students over the years have invented a standard system of names that serves to separate out the...
Ten Roman/Byzantines: This one makes the list as my best fourree serrate denarius. [ATTACH] Caesar and Octavian - not pretty but this is a rare...
Over the years I suspect I have posted more fourree coins here than anyone and have some not shown I'm sure if I had any memory of what was shown....
Your future as a nasal surgeon seems promising. I would suggest stopping where you are since the contrast as it is is as good as you will get.
The Caracalla Provincial seems to read -poppoleon (in Greek) reverse right so I would start with Philipoppolis. The obverse with the eagle...
Your legend is longer: FAVSTINA AVG ANTONINI AVG PII FIL It is common for longer legends to be used early in a reign (here 149-152 AD) and be...
I am disappointed that they did not use different lighting and really do not see where their gray image helps with tone. I am a fan of trying...
Nice portrait. The legend is there but so small it is hard to read. The coin is from her days as First Daughter.
Perhaps not. I forgot about the sale completely today. I bid early and immediately lost 5 coins I rather liked but they went for several times...
3, 8 and 6 standout to me but it is easy to see why you like the others. I will be iterested in seeing the Romans.
Other wheel but not real well done. Of course I can't remember what you have and did not include but my favorite RR denarii are below. My...
