[QUOTE="gsimonel, post: 3216455, member: 82549"]I agree that it is probably a Vandalic-era imitation. With unidentified AE4s with cross reverses, start with Theodosius II (D N THEODOSIVS P F AVG). His are by far the most plentiful. Most of his cross reverse coins lack reverse legends, but if there is an inscription, assume that it is CONCORDIA unless some of the letters preclude this. Arcadius is the next most common, but he lags far behind. In your case, neither of these assumptions seem particularly justified, so that's why I'm thinking imitation. Either that, or it is heavily damaged, which is also possible.[/QUOTE]
