    I was taken by these 2 found in a uncleaned lot. I hope this picture is of interest to others. Wonderful stylised portraits.

    Cool additions. Licinius is one of those emperors that does not get a whole lot of love. Thats pretty nice for an uncleaned lot too! What the rev. look like on 'em?

    Two nice coins. What does the reverse look it?

    One reverse, at least

    Sorry, I'm not organized about recording the reverses, but I found the reverse of the one on the left...let's see if I can attach it.

    Decent coins, especially coming from an unclean lot. I wonder, however, is that possibly BD on the reverse?

    I agree. It seems to me there are some very nice Licinius I coins out there at decent prices.

    The stylized portraits are great. I call them fat-heads.

    very nice for an uncleaned lot..bravo markw.

    does any of that green stuff come off when you rub it with a fingeranil? if so, probably bd...distilled water treatment and and some scraping should clear it right up.
