<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 4731553, member: 19463"]furryfrog02 said it all so all I can add is a photo of another specimen. You will notice that your coin is a bit more clear on the dots in the mintmark but seeing a few other legends might help you understand the bumps that ff02 read correctly using his experience looking at similar coins. Some people like to check their coins against standard catalogs like RIC which shows this coin as 61b on page 519 of volume VI. Some of us don't care as much about catalog numbers. The hobby works both ways.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1158204[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Here is a challenge for ff02 and anyone else who wants to play trivia. The above coin is from the last issue shown in RIC volume VI. The first issue in volume VII has differences that are distinguished by the fact that coins with them were not known in the name of Maximinus II. The question for those who want to play is why there were none for Maximinus II to match those for Constantine and Licinius.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
