[QUOTE="Marsyas Mike, post: 3987255, member: 85693"]That is a lovely example of the half follis, Tejas - probably the nicest I saw from the ones I saw poking around on the 'net. Thanks for sharing it. An interesting thing about this issue is that the ones I saw are pretty much all nicely struck on rather round, even planchets (unlike official AEs from the official mints). My theory: military efficiency at the military mint! Here's a slew of them (all denominations) from acsearch: [URL]https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?term=salona+justinian&category=1&en=1&de=1&fr=1&it=1&es=1&ot=1&images=1&thesaurus=1&order=0¤cy=usd&company=[/URL][/QUOTE]
