<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jays-dad, post: 1234046, member: 26881&quot;]The first &quot;coin&quot; has a date of 1870 but is very well struck. It is 14 1/2 mm. I have a bunch of Apothecary weights and this just doesn&#039;t feel like one (I think all mine are brass, this item looks like bronze). Anyone know of any significance of 1870 and 1/8 A? Combine that with a Trojan(?).</p><p><br /></p><p>The second item is 16 mm and obviously silver. Seems like a cob, but this is not my area of specialization. Anyone?</p><p><br /></p><p>The third one is 19 1/2 mm. It seems to be a Severus Alexander. Any more info on it? I do not have anything from this emperor yet, so it is a good find no matter what. Any way to tell which mint it is from? Denomination? Any way to attribute the year better than 22-235 (reign years)?</p><p><br /></p><p>The last one is definitely Byzantine. Is that Jesus? Year minted?</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for the input so far, maybe I&#039;ll get lucky here, it&#039;s been known to happen here.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
