<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Al Kowsky, post: 5144781, member: 97383&quot;]JayAg47, Orielensis presented an excellent outline of coinage from the Germanic tribes, &amp; his opening statement is right on target <b>&quot;There is no simple answer to this question&quot;</b>. About 10 years ago I noticed a gold solidus from an old German collection that appeared more German than Celtic, that kept popping up at auctions in Europe. That coin finally made an appearance at CNG Triton XXI, where I ended up winning it, see photo below. The coin is a copy of a Roman solidus, however, the portrait side isn&#039;t as well engraved as the Gothic solidi of Theodoric, as can be seen in the coin below it.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1207730[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1207731[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
