[QUOTE="Sulla80, post: 3282074, member: 99456"]There are very few byzantine coins that have found there way into my collection - not confident in attribution of either of the two below. I am certain that neither of these are appropriate to include in a thread that starts with "Masterpieces..." Byzantine Empire: a 1.8g decanummium of [B][B]Phocas[/B] [/B]602-610 AD[B][ATTACH=full]867651[/ATTACH] [/B] [B]Obv (right image): [/B] d N FOCA NE PE AV.

[B]Rev (left image)[/B]: Large X between ANNO - II; cross above; beneath, P. The second one is less clear to me what it is. A small coin of only 0.7g, there is a tetarteron of Alexius I in Seaby Byzantine Coins and their Values (S.1932) that looks somewhat like this one? 1081-1118 AD? [ATTACH=full]867676[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
