He did not have a Constans but did rate the type as R.&nbsp; Perhaps I should point out that Tory was not famous for having mint state examples of every common coin but were they easily available, I suspect he would have upgraded this one.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]368983[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
