[QUOTE="snewman, post: 2048815, member: 31036"]Guys, seeing some of the ancients in the Secret Santa, I decided to look at a number at a local shop that he hadn't attributed yet. I bought 3 of them. I (believe) I attributed 2 of the them, but the greek coin, I'm failing at. Constantine - 18mm - not many have left facing busts. I called this RIC VII 306 S Altar with globe on it, VOTIS XX on the altar. BEATA TRANQUILLITAS on reverse Love the centering/detail on this. Wish the text were a little clearer [ATTACH=full]375904[/ATTACH] Constantius II - 24mm - RIC VIII 95 - FEL TEMP RE-PARATIO SMES (Cyzicus) My photo stand isn't up yet after the move. Sorry for the flash effect that saturates the detail on this coin. [ATTACH=full]375905[/ATTACH] This coin, I'm lost. 24mm. The text has greek characters, and the eagle usually means greek, but using the text search on wildwinds, I couldn't find anything. Any hints? I thought it was AKNIOUFI...
