Message:: [QUOTE="LukeGob, post: 8623632, member: 73885"]So, I scored one of my "Wish List" coins; top 4 that I have yet to acquire, easy! RIC X 2134, Valentinian III; Vict Stg F, Hd L (or to our R), wings to each side, holds Wr in each hand, "T" L field (3rd off. Where discernible, all other examples I've seen are also off T). Leg is supposed to be VICTOR-IA AVGG (none I've seen have anything like a complete Re Leg, I imagine Kent went with a bit of an educated guess?), this one seems to be: (VICT)O-RIAVG(G?). Ob: P-Diad, Dr & Cuir Bust R, DN VALEN(TINIANVS PF AVG). Rated R5.Handful of others known. Maybe a dozen-ish? Few more? Most are bad, even for the era; this is one of the best, in my humble opinion. Very thrilled! Auction just ended, so I don't have it in-hand yet. But I'm just too excited not to share. Pics are screen shots of the Auction's listing pic (I don't know if I'm allowed to use their pic. If I'm not, PLEASE tell me & I'll remove them). Sorry, I can't crop the junk out (though it does have some info). Once I have the coin, I'll post another thread with my own pics (prob worse) & some more info about the coin & why I think it's important, insightful & why I'm pretty sure of the attribution (why it isn't a more common CONCORDIA AVG or an unofficial imitation). For now, I just couldn't help but share.Thoughts? [ATTACH=full]1515763[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]1515764[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
