[B]What's everyone working on tonight?[/B] I have this new (today) long-necked Constantius II. I thought this was wierd some double-strike or something (it still kinda is... both on the ob an r) but I learned today that many of these Trier RIC 227s have cartoonishly long necks. [ATTACH=full]1037659[/ATTACH] Constantius II D N CONSTANTIVS PF AVG, pearl diademed, draped and cuirassed bust right with long thin neck (FEL dot TEMP dot R)EPARATIO, radiate phoenix standing right on rocky mound. Mintmark TRS dot. RIC VIII Trier 227. These long thin necks on Phoenix coins can only be seen from the Trier mint. Another example of the long neck on these coins without the double strike... (not my coin) [ATTACH=full]1037665[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
