[QUOTE="Gabor Papp, post: 25512293, member: 98203"]Dear All, Could you please help me in coin identification? The style of mine coin is typical of Maurice Tiberius; however, the beard and the presumably ERP AVG inscription on the obverse refer to Phocas. [ATTACH=full]1633681[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1633682[/ATTACH] I found two very similar coins on acsearch. The first one was identified a Maurice Tiberius half follis, but its description was wrong - see the inscription: Maurice Tiberius, AD 582-602. AE, Half Follis. (22mm, 5.76 g). Constantinople. Dated RY 2 (583/4) Obv: D N MAVRC PP A. [ATTACH=full]1633683[/ATTACH] That one below is also linked to Maurice Tiberius on acsearch, but its inscription on the observe is not assessed. [ATTACH=full]1633684[/ATTACH] I have no idea what kind of coin is it. Please help me! Thank you, and best wishes, Gábor[/QUOTE]
