<p>[QUOTE=&quot;furryfrog02, post: 8149129, member: 41219&quot;]Both of these were bought at the very tail end of 2021 but since they arrived yesterday I plan on counting them towards 2022 coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>Neither are beautiful by any stretch of the word, but for the prices paid and the fact that they are relatively obscure emperors, I am happy to have them in my collection.</p><p><br /></p><p>They were also a nice distraction from the stress of Mrs. Frog being in the hospital yesterday for observation on the tadpole. Everything turned out ok and she came home late last night but it looks like we will be adding another to the pond sooner than originally planned.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyways, here are the two coins that came:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1421415[/ATTACH] </p><p>Procopius</p><p>AE3</p><p>364-367 AD</p><p>Obverse: D N PROCOPIVS P F AVG, pearl diademed, cuirassed bust right </p><p>Reverse: REPARATIO FEL TEMP, emperor standing facing, head left, holding labarum and resting hand on shield</p><p>Mintmark CONSA</p><p>Cost: $20</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1421414[/ATTACH] </p><p>Magnus Maximus</p><p>AE2</p><p>Lyons</p><p>383-388 AD</p><p>Obverse: DN MAG MAXI-MVS PF AVG, pearl-diademed, draped, cuirassed bust right </p><p>Reverse: REPARATIO-REIPVB, Emperor standing left, holding Victory on globe and raising kneeling, turreted woman.
