<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Brian Bucklan, post: 2509560, member: 76544&quot;]I have had this coin sitting around for many years and I just am not sure if it is a true Byzantine issue or possibly an imitative type. Opinions would definitely be appreciated. Here&#039;s the coin:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]533503[/ATTACH] </p><p>There are ae nummus issues of Justinian with the Christogram reverse but they are tiny at around 8mm. This one is certainly larger at around 12mm, about the size of a pentanummium, and struck on an odd shaped planchet. I think you can see IV as the start of the legend, but that is just a guess. I&#039;m normally pretty good at early Byzantine issues but this one has me stumped.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
