[QUOTE="Severus Alexander, post: 3843606, member: 84744"]I previously revised my round 1 guess from Valentinian to Curtisimo, and I'll stick with that. Since my first four guesses are [I]clearly[/I] correct, this must belong to Al Kowsky, because that's what Sherlock Holmes would say. Or something. :confused: Sounds like Al and I'm sure he'd like the coin. (Who wouldn't?) So my revised guesses are: Round 1: Curtisimo Round 2: Parthicus Round 3: Valentinian Round 4: dougsmit Round 5: Al Kowsky Here's my victoriatus, Crawford 44/1. [USER=74282]@red_spork[/USER] tells me this variety is one of the earliest issues, so probably around 211-ish, and probably roughly coinciding with the introduction of the denarius. [ATTACH=full]1019799[/ATTACH] The lines below the shield on mine are indeterminate between skirt and greaves, so it doesn't fit nicely into any of the 44/1 groups. Probably nobody cares but I can tell myself it's scarce. :) What's the Crawford ID and group for the OP? 70/1 group B? (Here's Steve Brinkman's [URL='http://stevebrinkman.ancients.info/anonymous/AnonymousVictoriatii.html']page on these[/URL] if you want to check.)[/QUOTE]
