[ATTACH] Here's mine! Nepos was usurped and technically still claimed to be emperor after the West "fell", so I think it counts still. Next: A...
I think I must have meant up for sale/auction when I wrote that in my notes. I definitely would have looked at OCRE when IDing it.
Here's mine, RIC VI Antioch 132a. It's in RIC, but I haven't seen a single other example anywhere. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I highly recommend you check out tesorillo, it's a great resource for learning more about late roman bronzes: https://www.tesorillo.com/aes/home.htm
The first coin is pretty dead, sorry. None of the important details for specific identification are present. It could be Theodosius I or...
I just came to the same conclusion while looking at this thread. That thought had never occurred to me before but I think you're spot on.
These are wonderful! I'm jealous.
Nice one! I really wonder what was going on inside the engraver's head for that one of yours. He clearly was trying to depict something on his...
I've found this to be surprisingly uncommon among the collectors I've talked to. I'm personally half-heartedly collecting a type set of Philip the...
Very cool Victor. Particularly interesting type, so doubly neat to see it as a weight. I recently won the below coin weight in an auction, what...

That's it! Thanks so much!
Lovely details. This reverse design feels very big to me with the full bodied, well-detailed emperor, and I do like how it looks on larger coins,...
Thanks! I'm not quite sure who my avatar is. I stumbled across him in google images years ago, no clue what I was looking for. I found him amusing...
I was admiring gold multiples late last night and came across a reference to this coin in passing but can't find any more information on it. Does...
I think it's Apollo. Similar to this but with the reverse flipped. I'm struggling to find any matches to yours.
It's more about worth than size really. A large silver coin like a tetradrachm had a lot of purchasing power. It wasn't something that the average...
This is just pearls. The rosettes are the round shapes found in between the borders. Pearl and rosette diadems don't exist to my knowledge,...
I'm not exactly sure what you mean, 2/3 types have rosettes, 1/3 has pearls, and 1/3 has laurels. The middle example shared here is laurel and...
[ATTACH] Thank you for your reply. I definitely see the difference between the two coins you shared, but I'm wondering if the fact that they're...
