<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 2002554, member: 19463"]They have the look as being from the same hoard even thought the 3rd and 4th are not Antioch. These coins circulated and mixed. The Cyzicus and Nicomedia are no more special unless you are trying to collect the set which almost no one is. Antiochs tend to be well made coins compared to some so the better quality offsets their being common. There are very few really premium items in the FH series and a few of us will pay bit more for some numbers but most people seem to believe a horseman is a horseman and care little for the details. I'm always watching for the chance to improve my Trier and Amiens holdings but the only FH that really is special is the Magnentius issue. The Kneeling pose (FH1) is less common and coins of Constans are a little scarcer but these have to be a lot nicer than the ones shown to excite demand.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
