[QUOTE="Orange Julius, post: 8318848, member: 77226"]Nice coins! I love Alexandrian coins and have many but no Constantius coins yet so I'm jealous! Anyway, a few more references for you that gave me a chance to use my loved but often unused books. Milne - According to Milne there are two variations between the coins, the obverse legend and the bust style (which looks to mostly match your coins, except for the addition to a legend ending "K" noted below but not included in the text). [LIST] [*]Top coin Milne 5184 - with legend A2 (ΦΛΑ ΚⲰΝCΤΑΝΤΙΟC (the text leaving out the legend ending "K" that looks to be on your coin)) with bust K7 (Bust r., laureate, wearing cuirass) - No mention of the upside down "L". [*]Bottom coin Milne 5183 - with legend A1 (ΦΛΑ ΚⲰCΤΑΝΤΙΟC K) with bust K (Bust r., laureate, wearing cloak and cuirass) [/LIST] Emmett - Both 4194(3) Rarity rating 1 - Common [LIST] [*]Top coin with legend B - ΦΛΑ ΚⲰΝCΤΑΝΤΙΟC K [*]Bottom coin with legend A - ΦΛΑ ΚⲰCΤΑΝΤΙΟC K [/LIST] Curtis - Only references a match to Milne's 5184 coin (your top coin) as Curtis 2123, with a side reference to BMC 2610v [LIST] [*]Legend B - ΦΛΑ ΚⲰΝCΤΑΝΤΙΟC K [*]Since a variation, I suppose your bottom coin could just be referenced as Curtis 2123v [/LIST][/QUOTE]
