    That's a sweet coin, @Svarog. All I have are a couple of tiny AE4s.

    I wish I could tell you this was a handsome Roman nose as seen in Alexandria mint but, instead, I fear it is a die break.

    Valentinian I I think. I still have some unattributed coins I'm working on, so there may yet be a Valentinian II in there.

    Obverse: DN VALENTINIANVS PF AVG
    Reverse: GLORIA ROMANORVM, emperor dragging captive

    @Brian Bucklan
    My eye is only beginning to be able to distinguish one ancient from another; so, having a chance to see the same coin more than once (or twice, even) helps and is appreciated.
