<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hobo, post: 536725, member: 11521&quot;]This very interesting coin is not mine. I photographed it at ANA Summer Seminar last year in my Digital Coin Photography course.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The coin is hammered Byzantine gold and is very deep (over 1&quot; if I remember correctly). I was not able to get an identification of the coin from the owner. Any help with identification would be appreciated.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Why do these coins have such a deep bowled shape? </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The first photo is the obverse and is inside the &quot;bowl&quot;. The second photo is the reverse and is the &quot;bottom&quot; on the outside of the &quot;bowl&quot;.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
