[QUOTE="Orielensis, post: 6884963, member: 96898"]Both your "new" coins are definitely much more attractibe than your old coins – I very much like them. Ever since having read Gore Vidal's novel "Julian" last summer, I'm looking for a siliqua of this emperor. So far, I've been unsuccessful, though. Here are my AE examples: [ATTACH=full]1272752[/ATTACH] [SIZE=3]Julian II, Roman Empire, AE1, 361–363 AD, Antioch mint. Obv: DN FL CL IVLIANVS PF AVG; diademed, draped, cuirassed bust of Julian II r.
