<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Valentinian, post: 4403365, member: 44316&quot;][USER=31620]@maridvnvm[/USER] showed an excellent &quot;galley&quot; imitation. Imitations tend to be smaller than the originals, but some are close to full-size:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1106535[/ATTACH] </p><p>22-21 mm. 4.20 grams.</p><p>Letter-like shapes, symbol(s) behind the head. The full-size prototype was issued in the names of Constantius II and Constans, but it is more common for Constantius II, so the odds are that the original that this coin copies is of Constantius II. </p><p>Soldier spearing fallen horseman. Letter-like shapes something like HTIITA IITHVIIT</p><p>(That&#039;s supposed to say &quot;FEL TEMP REPARATIO&quot;!) Star in right field, letter-like shapes in exergue--more of them than on most official mint marks.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;d like to see more imitations from this time period.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
