<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 1997002, member: 19463"]Ardatirion told you the city was Anchialus. Stop looking in Pautalia. I really doubt you will find it online and I do not have the specialized books to look it up. From what I have seen online, the city issued quite a few reverses over a period of time since we see young and old portraits of Commodus but not a lot of specimens of any one type. Yours is a little rough but so are many I've seen sold in the online resources (search CNG's past sales). Provincials is a really bad field to take up if you live for catalog numbers. If it is in the references, the books that need to be checked are numerous and expensive. From the coin, we can see a middle period portrait (youngish but not kid). I would have guessed Apollo but Boni Eventus is reasonable and do not claim to know which this is.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
