[QUOTE="furryfrog02, post: 4979062, member: 41219"]I received this in the mail after purchasing them over the weekend. It was part of a 3 coin lot along with some WWII notes. Strange combo...either way, the coins came today and I am working on ID'ing them. This is the only one I am not 100% sure on: I believe it to be: Justinian I AE Half-Follis Antioch Obverse: DN IVSTINIANVS PP AVG, helmeted, cuirassed bust facing, holding cross on globe and long sceptre, cross to right Reverse: Large K, ANNO to left, cross above, regnal year to right, mintmark e (or P with angled downstroke). [ATTACH=full]1196275[/ATTACH] My coin weighs 9.42g and is slightly larger than a quarter. I could only find one example on Vcoins, though I'm not sure if this is reginal year XXI or XXXI. It is listed as being "scarce". I'm not sure if that is correct or not: [IMG]https://images.vcoins.com/product_image/136/H/6/HJz43WGjswZ68EMef2cBNkp7m5JePr.jpg[/IMG] [URL]https://www.vcoins.com/en/stores/romae_aeternae_numismatics/136/product/justinian_i_ae_half_follis_helmeted_bust_facing__large_k_ry_21_antioch_scarce/843151/Default.aspx[/URL] What do you all think?[/QUOTE]
