<p>[QUOTE="rexesq, post: 1011103, member: 5739"]I have some new Late Roman Bronzes too that I need to make a thread about when I get some photos. One is a Constantinoplis commemorative, very nice one too, great strike and detail on both sides, the mintmark area is cut off the planchet it seems... can barely see the tip top of one of the exergue letters... It is my favorite of my three new bronzes even so.</p><p> The other two are of some of the Constantines... one has a right facing bust with the two soldiers 'gloria exercitus' reverse, I can't read the mintmark, it's there, but it's got some rust covering it. </p><p>The other has an interesting left facing bust, and looks like he might be holding a sheild as well, and has a campgate reverse and PTR mintmark I believe... so trier.
