<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ancient coin hunter, post: 6651571, member: 87200&quot;]I agree that the silver coins are actually rarer than gold. Here is an example:</p><p><br /></p><p>Constantine VII Porphyrogenitus, with Romanus I and Christopher, 913-959. Miliaresion. Constantine was the fourth Emperor of the Macedonian dynasty reigning from 6 June 913 to 9 November 959. He was the son of Emperor Leo VI and his fourth wife, Zoe Karbonopsina, and the nephew of his predecessor Emperor Alexander. He was known as a scholar and the epithet &quot;born in the purple&quot; refers to his birthplace in the Imperial chamber adorned with the purple stone porphyry. Much of his reign was covered by regencies, first under his mother and later under Romanus I.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>(AR, 25 mm, 3.15 g, 12 h), Constantinople.
