<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marsyas Mike, post: 3214076, member: 85693&quot;]I was wondering if any Byzantine experts out there could help me with this.&nbsp; I recently got this Byzantine 12 nummi, the seller describing it as Maurice Tiberius, Sear 544.&nbsp; I&#039;d tend to agree with this - it even has the dot below the cross, which is listed as a variation. </p><p><br /></p><p>My question comes, however, from the obverse legend, which looks like DN CON... to me.&nbsp; Which would make this, possibly, Tiberius II Constantine, Sear 460.&nbsp; There is a Vcoins listing that seems to have a similar obverse legend as mine:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.vcoins.com/en/stores/london_ancient_coins/89/product/tiberius_ii_constantine_578582_ad_ae_12_nummi_alexandria_rare/904555/Default.aspx" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.vcoins.com/en/stores/london_ancient_coins/89/product/tiberius_ii_constantine_578582_ad_ae_12_nummi_alexandria_rare/904555/Default.aspx" rel="nofollow">https://www.vcoins.com/en/stores/london_ancient_coins/89/product/tiberius_ii_constantine_578582_ad_ae_12_nummi_alexandria_rare/904555/Default.aspx</a></p><p><br /></p><p>The legends on these tended to be blundered, so I gather from poking around the Internet, so perhaps there is no definitive answer.&nbsp; Or am I missing something obvious?&nbsp; The Vcoin example has a cross in the obverse legend, which is not on mine, so maybe I am way off track here. </p><p><br /></p><p>Any help would be greatly appreciated. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]835361[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
