<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ancientnoob, post: 1791167, member: 44140&quot;]I have been in the market for one of the Byzantine Anonymous Jesus Follii with a decent obverse Jesus. I am sure I did not pay too much... $24. I realize the coin is missing some pieces of the legend, obverse devices and part of the nimbate but the face of Jesus and the price are what sold me on the piece.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> This is also the second coin I have from the reign of this emperor.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I would be thrilled to hear your guys opinions on the coin.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><font size="3"><font face="andale mono"><span style="color: #000000">Bronze Anonymous Follis, </span></font></font></p><p><font size="3"><font face="andale mono"><span style="color: #000000">Class A1, 24 mm x 21 mm x 7.36 grams</span></font></font></p><p><font size="3"><font face="andale mono"><span style="color: #000000">John I Tzimisces</span></font></font></p><p><font size="3"><font face="andale mono"><span style="color: #000000">Constantinople mint, 969 - 976 A.D.</span></font></font></p><p><font size="3"><font face="andale mono"><span style="color: #000000">Obv.
