[QUOTE="furryfrog02, post: 3968359, member: 41219"]FFIVN decided to start with the FEL TEMP. He likes these designs with the horses and this is the largest one that we have. All of ours before this are ones that we cleaned up last year and most are in less than stellar shape. This one is beautiful. He says that it looks like he is sad and crying. FFIVN started right away with his LRB resource pages and went from tesorillo to wildwinds. This was a pretty straight forward identification though neither of us were able to find one with both the "gamma" and "dot" in the fields on wildwinds. Drum roll please.......... Constantius II AE23 of Constantinople AD 348-351 Obverse: DN CONSTAN-TIVS PF AVG, pearl diademed, draped, cuirassed bust right. Reverse: FEL TEMP-REPARATIO, helmeted soldier spearing fallen horseman, who is wearing a Phrygian helmet, no beard, clutching horse's neck. Γ in left field and dot in the center. Mintmark CONSA. [ATTACH=full]1044299[/ATTACH] EDIT: [USER=75937]@Roman Collector[/USER] helped set us straight and tweak our ID so that it matches RIC VIII 106. Thanks![/QUOTE]
