[QUOTE="Orange Julius, post: 3254703, member: 77226"]Here is my A-class.... I believe it's an A3 however rather than an A2. From what I understand, they are similar with the difference being size and weight (mine being 30-28mm and 10.47 grams). According to the chart you refer to, my coin is an example of Type 43 ornamentation. [ATTACH=full]854870[/ATTACH] For the table above... 43 is the type, -c- is on the reverse bottom, the star is in the nimbus in 3 spots around the head on the obverse, the box/circle thing is on the gospels (book) in hand on the obverse. [ATTACH=full]854868[/ATTACH] (Don't worry the green is stable, hard and unchanging... not active BD.) Anonymous (attributed to sole reign of Constantine VIII and also to the last few years of Basil II), AE Follis, Class A3, 1081-1092 +EMMA_NOVVHL, IC | XC across fields Bust of Christ facing, wearing nimbus cruciger with box pattern in each limb and empty in each quarter, pallium and colobium, book of Gospels in both hands +IhSUS / XRISTUS / bASILEU / bASILE Legend in four lines, pellet below 30-28mm 10.47 grams SB 1818[/QUOTE]
