<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2587756, member: 19463&quot;]Maurice Tiberius is interesting for the garbled legends and number of his coins that (like Steve&#039;s) do not have the name Maurice.&nbsp; There are many &#039;different&#039; ones.&nbsp; My Antioch follis is unusual with&nbsp; the year 8 expressed with the III over the U.&nbsp; Sear 532 lists this year this way, with the U on top and with 6II using the curved top six letter.&nbsp; He describes the obverse legend as &quot;badly blundered&quot;.&nbsp; Steve is missing a &#039;snout&#039;.&nbsp; Mine has nose but what happened to my eagle?[ATTACH=full]563026[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>My half follis does not have to worry about legends being blundered.&nbsp; By the time they finished cutting down the earlier coin used as a flan, there was no room for legend.&nbsp; My guess is Sear 497 but I read the officina as A rather than delta so may be completely wrong.&nbsp; When I bought this, it was my best example of a cut down flan.&nbsp; </p><p>[ATTACH=full]563027[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
