<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Quant.Geek, post: 4954623, member: 74799&quot;]Outstanding post and a great coin! Byzantine silver coins are actually fun to collect and as been pointed out, very affordable.&nbsp; Here is one where I should probably update the attribution a bit:</p><p><br /></p><p><b> Byzantine Empire: Basil II Bulgaroktonos with Constantine VIII (977-989 CE) AR Miliaresion, Constantinople (Sear-1810; DOC 17) </b></p><p><br /></p><p>Obv: Cross crosslet, with X at intersection, on base, globus, and four steps. In field left, facing bust of Basil, bearded, wearing loros and crown with cross and pendilia. In field right, facing bust of Constantine, beardless, wearing chlamys and crown with cross and pendilia. Triple linear border</p><p>Rev: with ornament above and beneath. Triple linear border</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/albums/userpics/36484/Sear-1810.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
