<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ryan McVay, post: 24894839, member: 117904&quot;]OK. I have given up on trying to find a reference for this coin. It is a bit difficult to identify the Emporer on this one. My options are either based on the city (Chalcis ad Belum, Chalcidice) are Hadrian (which is where I am currently leaning), Trajan, Antoninus Pius or Marcus Aurelius.</p><p><br /></p><p>My coin is only 5.67g, 18mm. Most of these coins are double the weight at around 11-13g (per acsearch public results) and size 22-26mm. I have found only one example in acsearch that comes in around my weight which is identified as RPC III 3475.1 = Lindgren I 1929. But my coin has no legend on the reverse and oddly enough I have a palm frond and shield combo with a spear in the other hand. Whereas all other examples have, what I opine as correct, the spear and shield in one hand and palm in the other.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m looking for any reference on this coin or even help validating the portrait.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1599374[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1599375[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
