<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rrdenarius, post: 8100067, member: 75525&quot;]Interesting coins. You had a good year. I like the numbers on Byzantine coins and find it interesting they do not always match numbers on Byzantine scale weights.</p><p>Roman Republican gold, XXX = 30 asses </p><p>Byzantine bronze, XXX = 30 Nummi (Nomismata)</p><p>late Roman / Byzantine scale weights NΛ = 30 Nomismata = 30 Solidi (actually both XXX and NΛ are used)</p><p>I do not have a 30 N scale weight. I have a 5 Nummi coin and 5 Nominmata scale weight. Both use E for 5. The E on the scale weight is not much better in hand. I probably need to find someone here to advise how to remove desert patina.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1408516[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]1408517[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
