<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ardatirion, post: 378560, member: 9204&quot;]<span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana">There were a surprising number of dealers with ancient coins at the Clifton, NJ monthly coin show. (which I will attend whenever I&#039;m in NJ!) One table I missed until the end was a little old Italian gentleman with TONS of ancients, sestertii in particular. I was able to get these from dealers who didn&#039;t quite know what they had: the Constantius Chlorus (cost me only $12) was thought to be unattributable, and the Mytilene was misattributed as being from Syracuse. </font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana"><br /></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana"><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">Crispus</font></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana"><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">AE – </font></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana"><font size="3"><font face="Times New Roman">London, 322-323 AD</font></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana"><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">laureate cuirassed bust left, holding spear &amp; shield, pattern on shield</font></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana"><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">CRISPVS-NOBIL C</font></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana"><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">globe set on altar inscribed VOT/IS/XX, three stars above</font></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana"><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">BEAT TRANQVILITAS F-B</font></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana"><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">PLON in ex.</font></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana"><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">RIC VII London 250</font></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana"><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">C3</font></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana"><br /></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana"><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">Constantius Chlorus</font></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana"><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">AE – Follis</font></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana"><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">Serdica, 305-306 AD</font></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana"><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">laureate head r.</font></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana"><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">IMP C FL VAL CONSTANTIVS PF AVG</font></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana"><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">Genius stg. l., modius on hd., naked but for chlamys over l. shoulder, holding patera in r. hand &amp; cornucopiae in l.</font></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana"><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">GENIO POPV-L-I ROMANI</font></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana"><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">B in r. field, SM dot SD in exergue</font></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana"><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">RIC VI Serdica 12a</font></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana"><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">C</font></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana">&nbsp;</font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana"></font></span><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">Mytilene, Lesbos</font></font></p><p><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">AE19</font></font></p><p><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">3rd-2nd century BC</font></font></p><p><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">laureate head of Apollo r.</font></font></p><p><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">lyre between two monograms, MY and T-I in fields</font></font></p><p><i><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3">BMC 17. 192-3, 96-105, Sear 4273</font></font></i>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
