<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Gao, post: 635648, member: 19409&quot;]Assuming that you indeed see &quot;SIVSPFAVG&quot; there, it is indeed a coin of Theodosius I, whose VOT/XV/MVLT/XX reverses date to 379-383 AD according to <a href="http://www.tesorillo.com/aes/064/064i.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.tesorillo.com/aes/064/064i.htm" rel="nofollow">this site</a> (which is the best site for identifying late Roman bronzes that I&#039;m aware of). In order to know the exact type of this coin, we&#039;re going to need to know the mintmark, which is what&#039;s written beneath the wreath on the back. Give us what you can, even if it&#039;s only a letter or two. In addition, you will need to give us an idea of the condition before we can give you a meaningful value.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I tried to find some Theodosian VOT/XV/MVLT/XX coins on some of the usual coin shopping sites to give you a very rough ballpark for pricing, but I&#039;m having trouble finding that exact reverse. This could mean that it&#039;s a rarer one, or it could just be that no one has any in stock at the moment. I don&#039;t have a reference book for coins of this era, and I dont&#039; really collect Romans this late much, so you will have to hope someone else here can give you more information than that (and they&#039;ll probably need a mintmark before they can tell you much). You may be able to get a very, very rough idea of how much it&#039;s worth by searching for &quot;Theodosius Vot&quot; or &quot;Theodosius Votis&quot; on VCoins, but you would probably need someone who knows more about this particular area to tell you whether this would really be equivalent.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
