<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2043638, member: 19463&quot;]Delmatius suffers from being around for a very short time during the period of one of the least thrilling reverse types (2 soldiers, 1 standard).&nbsp; As a result his coins tend to be, to use Mat&#039;s term, boring.&nbsp; About the only option other than mintmarks is the spelling variation with some (like the OP) having DALMATIVS.&nbsp;&nbsp; Of my four, the last (Thessalonica) is best and &#039;least&#039; boring because of the A for E and the big jaw portrait.&nbsp; Next is the first (Arles) with Chi-rho on the standard. The Heraclea and Cyzicus are coins I bought a long time ago for reasons that are now less clear.&nbsp; There are gold solidi that sell for five digits but I can&#039;t say that I could see many people spending that number on a &#039;boring&#039; gold coin either.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]373680[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]373681[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]373682[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]373683[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
