From a huge batch from CTer @tenbobbit here is what I think is the "palm only" type of that Victorinus - the additional information in this post...
Beautiful example of an often unattractive type, @nerosmyfavorite68 I really like that deep, attractive green. A countermark nut, I have a...
Nice one, Bing. You have a very good son! I think it is Spanish - that "C" is for Cuenca, maybe? This one is close, but the monogram does not...
Nice coins, @JayAg47 - well worth the wait. That Hadrian type is really interesting - I have a beater of the type: [ATTACH] As it so happens,...
Interesting piece. These sorts of things are hard to evaluate as there's no "official" template to determine authenticity, as with coins....
Thank you so much for that incredibly useful information - I am much obliged and will revise my attributions accordingly! :)
Not pretty, but here is an Olbia countermark: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Thrace, Olbia Æ 18 (c. 160-150 B.C.) Laureate head of Apollo...
Nice ones, @Orielensis - and I agree, Postumus has some interesting types. I think I have an example of the OP SALVS type. Looking this type...
I'm glad you posted those - in particular that Justinian follis, Year XII from Nicomedia. One just like it showed up on eBay the other day, from...

Sorry to hear about this @furryfrog02 - disappointments are no fun. :grumpy: Here's my disappointment for the week - a very low grade AE of...
Thank you so much @TIF - not only for the ID, but the terrific overlay as well. Nothing like a British Museum die match to make me feel like a...
Thanks for that suggestion, ff02. I hadn't thought of Hercules, but now that I look at it, it is a possibility. The thing that threw me off is...
I've been getting batches of low-grade Roman Provincials of late, which have been a lot of fun to attribute, if not very handsome to look at....
That's a lovely coin, @Marsman (and everybody else). Although I don't have a Nero, I do have a Julio Claudian arch, the Arch of Druses. There...
More Trajan conquests - I just got this one in...it was affordable and it is green. Other than that, all I can say for it is that it is a type I...
Nice one, @cmezner As it so happens, I got a Trajan's Column dupondius a couple weeks ago. This is one of those examples where "interesting type...
