[QUOTE="ArtDeco, post: 8315115, member: 119259"]So I've been wondering something regarding coins of the late Roman Republic and Roman Imperial coins, is it safe to assume that coins that have the aquila or military standards on the reverse of any silver or bronze coin are most likely to be Legionary issues? I have a Mark Antony coin which is definitely a confirmed Legionary issue (Legio III), but what about these coins? [ATTACH=full]1472213[/ATTACH] C Valerius Flaccus, 82 BC Obv: Right head of Victory Rev: Legionary Eagle with standards (With Victory on the obverse and an aquila on reverse, I would assume that this is a Legionary issue) [SIZE=6] [B][ATTACH=full]1472214[/ATTACH][/B][/SIZE] [SIZE=4]Trajan As struck circa 104-107 AD Obv: Laureate Head Right Rev: Legionary Eagle between standards.
