    Hi all.@EBS_Numis here :)

    All I ask is confirmation that my attributions are correct, as I don't know greek and my knowledge of Cyrillic only can help me so much.

    I bought a lot of 5 Roman provincial bronzes today - $110 for the lot. They were unattributed and I thought they might be cool additions to my collection for the price. I am hoping to keep most, but maybe sell a couple of them to put into more inventory for my vest-pocket dealing.

    I took some time to try and identify them, and I have come up with the following.

    Coin #1 - Caracalla? 5.89g, Æ23, https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces299774.html - I am spot on here, I know, but mine doesn't have the same reverse inscription as the example coin. Mine reads 'ANTIOCH GEN CL CA' while the example in the link above reads 'ANTIOCH GEN COL CA' - my question is whether this is something I am overthinking, or if this is something important I am missing.

    Thank you in advance, and I hope I can get confirmation! It will help my confidence a lot.



    Thanks,
