[QUOTE="sky92880, post: 8186305, member: 77343"]Valentinian, Thanks for your explanation, I know the site well and have already learned a lot from it. I have the coins of Valentinian III myself (see below). Perhaps I used the wrong wording on the last piece ( no. 7 ), not fleur de lis, but the turrets are more like the ( upside down ) hilt of a sword. Which I have never seen in this form. Therefore, I suspect it may even be much later in date. Until the 10th or 12th century. But we'll probably never find out.

Where did the engraver get his inspiration? possible Siscia imitation [ATTACH=full]1432232[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
