[QUOTE="Cucumbor, post: 123523, member: 4298"]Hello willieboyd2 I've been visiting thru your website : nice job you've done I'm not sure the last one is Honorius. You will tell that with coin in hand, but it seems that the third letter on the obverse is a V, and the fourth an A (actually looks like an H, but the engravers were not very precise in these times). The two first must be D and N (dominus noster). There is usually no third letter before the first letter of the emperor's name, then the name [B]HAS[/B] to begin with the V we see and not the H you think you see. Can you follow me or is it pinguin english ? Then with a V as first letter your emperor must be eitheir Valens, or Valentinian I or Valentinian II BTW, with 16 mm it is an AE3 and not an AE4.
