[QUOTE="Harry G, post: 8204526, member: 105282"]Hi all! I was going through one of the large lots of Nummi that I bought recently, and found this rather nice condition nummus of Constantius II. Interestingly, it appears to have the obverse legend FL IVL CONSTANTIVS N, of which I can only find one other example, which has the bust left instead of right. I have also looked on RIC online, but with no success. The reverse of the coin is the usual GLORIA EXERCITVS [ATTACH=full]1438142[/ATTACH] The other coin on acsearch: [URL]https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=422680[/URL] It's quite hard to see (due to my notoriously poor photography skills), but the coins is from Trier mint, with TRP in exergue. I also found this one, also of Constantius II, which appears to have the obverse legend FL IVL CONSTANTIVS A. There doesn't seem to be space for any more letters after that [ATTACH=full]1438157[/ATTACH] Does anyone have any ideas on these? Might they be unique coins, or maybe someone knows of a reference? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated! Thanks![/QUOTE]
