[QUOTE="cmezner, post: 3065465, member: 87809"]My apologies for yet another Crocodile coin :( quite worn and with scratches. After reading the very interesting links provided by dougsmit [url]http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/impossible.html[/url], Cucumbor and Julius Germanicus [url]http://www.asdenimes.com/[/url] and [url]http://as-de-nimes.pagesperso-orange.fr/classification/classification.html[/url] I wonder ( my French is very basic....) which one is the most likely class of my coin. Augustus head is bare so it is not a class 3 or 4. The hair of Augustus and Agrippa seems to be pointed, feature also to be found on some smaller early class 2 coins, so my guess would be class 2 therefore RIC 155-157. Is this correct? Diameter 24 x 25 mm (seems to be too small for a class 1), weight 13.89 g Obverse: IMP / DIVI·F Heads of Agrippa (left) and Augustus (right) back to back Reverse: COL·NEM Crocodile chained to palm with tip right; above on left a wreath with long ties Chris [ATTACH=full]769390[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]769393[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
