<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ewomack, post: 24812959, member: 15588&quot;]Not the prettiest coin I&#039;ve ever purchased, but even semi-decent examples of this Byzantine emperor remain pretty hard to find, at least in my experience. After over a year of searching, I decided to &quot;settle&quot; for this one because all of the text was legible and it includes at least some details in the portrait. With Byzantines, sometimes you have to take what you can get.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1588178[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1588179[/ATTACH] </p><p><i>Tiberius II Constantine. 578-582 AD.
