[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 5125579, member: 19463"]I would have to examine this one before believing it is fourree. I have been looking for fourrees of Eastern denarii for a long time and have none to show. I do not have a fourree aureus but have several Byzantines. One is even holed. Focas [ATTACH=full]1202727[/ATTACH] Basil I with Constantine [ATTACH=full]1202728[/ATTACH] Basil II with Constantine VIII Of all my plated coins, this one has the most regular and attractive core exposure. [ATTACH=full]1202729[/ATTACH] Michael IV This one was $3 in 1990 which may be about melt value today??? [ATTACH=full]1202730[/ATTACH] The above three photos all make me believe that there is no easier coin to photograph than a worn Byzantine fourree. The coins are trash but I am rarely this happy with coin images.[/QUOTE]
