[QUOTE="furryfrog02, post: 3180376, member: 41219"]Hello All! It has been a pretty hectic 2 weeks with getting ready for school and trying to cram as much summer as possible in the remaining days. Unfortunately we were just not able to sit down and devote some good quality time to identifying the remaining two coins my son has for his game. Finally, we had some time on the last day of summer to get into these last two. Luckily he has sharpened his teeth on previous coins in his game and has sat with me while I looked through pictures so he was able to get these figured out really quickly. I would say that his speed at ID'ing has gone from around an hour or so with my help to maybe 10-15 minutes (with an exception of coin 2) and needing very little help from me. Here is coin 1: Licinius I AE Follis. IMP C VAL LICIN LICINIVS P F AVG, radiate, draped and cuirassed bust right IOVI CONSERVATORI, Jupiter standing left, chlamys across left shoulder, holding Victory on globe and leaning on sceptre, eagle at left with wreath in its beak, captive right, X over II Mu in right field Mintmark: SMALA [ATTACH=full]819489[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
