<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Valentinian, post: 5185454, member: 44316&quot;]It&#039;s Saturday and the sun is going down now. The low-angled light was hitting coins on my desk and they were so pretty I thought you might like to see them:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1213415[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1213416[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Upper left:&nbsp; Agrippina Sr. sestertius, struck 5-54 under Claudius. RIC Claudius 102. Sear I 1906. </p><p>Upper right: Maximinus Thrax (235-238) sestertius, year 4 (238). RIC 40. Sear III 8336. </p><p>Lower left: Byzantine &quot;Empire of Thessalonica&quot; Theodore Comnenus-Ducas, 1224-1230, with St. Demetrius/emperor and Virgin, Sear 2167. The dark spot at 6-7:30 on the reverse is a shadow. The coin was cup-shaped and has been squashed since then. It does have a small hole at 1:00 on the obverse which is 5:30 on the reverse.</p><p>Lower right: Byzantine emperor Tiberius II, 578-583, 30-nummia piece from Constantinople, Sear 432.</p><p><br /></p><p>I hope you keep some coins close at hand. They can be super special when the light is right.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
