<p>[QUOTE="Justin Lee, post: 3263282, member: 87404"]Recently picked up this Claudius II Gothicus. It was listed as barbarous, and based on the uneven quality of the obverse legend (the spacing and that S) and the reverse legend itself ([XX]DESSXE[x]) , I'm inclined to agree. But the bust is pretty nice. I'm thinking it might have intended to be a FIDES reverse? I really don't know ... </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]858884[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>What are your thoughts on it?</p><p><br /></p><p>And show me some of your barbarous or unofficial coins![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
