<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Evan Saltis, post: 24703880, member: 103066&quot;]Hi all.@EBS_Numis here <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;<u><b>All I ask is confirmation that my attributions are correct, as I don&#039;t know greek and my knowledge of Cyrillic only can help me so much.</b></u></p><p><br /></p><p>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.</p><p><br /></p><p>I took some time to try and identify them, and I have come up with the following.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Coin #1 - Caracalla? </b>5.89g, Æ23, <a href="https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces299774.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces299774.html" rel="nofollow">https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces299774.html</a> - I am spot on here, I know, but mine doesn&#039;t have the same reverse inscription as the example coin. Mine reads <i>&#039;ANTIOCH GEN CL CA&#039; </i>while the example in the link above reads &#039;<i>ANTIOCH GEN <u>COL</u> CA&#039;</i> -&nbsp; my question is whether this is something I am overthinking, or if this is something important I am missing.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://content.invisioncic.com/k321387/monthly_2023_09/IMG_5557.JPG.093841e30f8342c059b627d306a57540.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="https://content.invisioncic.com/k321387/monthly_2023_09/IMG_5558.JPG.92d6e0297f5cd991893d701faf6cc4df.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><b>COIN #2 - Severus Alexander, Marcianopolis mint, Homonoia reverse, Verb#1692 <a href="https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces62990.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces62990.html" rel="nofollow">https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces62990.html</a></b></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://content.invisioncic.com/k321387/monthly_2023_09/IMG_5559.JPG.d5bdf3a838c63b6966532c3f914b58e2.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="https://content.invisioncic.com/k321387/monthly_2023_09/IMG_5560.JPG.302994aafdb08e48ae96d90b98812905.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><b>COIN #3 - 9.91g,Elagabalus +Julia Maesa, Marcianopolis mint, Sarapis reverse. <a href="https://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk/coins/6/1414" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk/coins/6/1414" rel="nofollow">https://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk/coins/6/1414</a></b></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://content.invisioncic.com/k321387/monthly_2023_09/IMG_5561.JPG.b2808780579180d02f6cbf12bc824fb9.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="https://content.invisioncic.com/k321387/monthly_2023_09/IMG_5562.JPG.2a9a9c4ba3fcd0a800500ecda10efaf2.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><b>COIN #4 - Philip II and Sarapis, 10.82g, Mesambria mint, Verb#4290, RPC VIII#48382 <a href="https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces307215.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces307215.html" rel="nofollow">https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces307215.html</a></b></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://content.invisioncic.com/k321387/monthly_2023_09/IMG_5564.JPG.2054c1d49622af0887b1705d26846732.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="https://content.invisioncic.com/k321387/monthly_2023_09/IMG_5563.JPG.3999ec32a981509e2778623d0b320502.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><b>COIN #5 - Gordian III + Tranquillina, 12.31g, Tomis mint, RPC VII.2#1689</b></p><p><br /></p><p><b><a href="https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces358884.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces358884.html" rel="nofollow">https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces358884.html</a></b></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://content.invisioncic.com/k321387/monthly_2023_09/IMG_5566.JPG.34507221e00bd306cea810155c5cf360.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="https://content.invisioncic.com/k321387/monthly_2023_09/IMG_5565.JPG.56c5217cea26a2f6ed9dc6da7daebd16.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Thank you in advance, and I hope I can get confirmation!
