[QUOTE="Shea19, post: 8207015, member: 90981"]Nice pickup, Al! I bought one of the same type from Nomos last year….yours is a great example, very nice detail on the reverse. My coin is a bit double-struck, which makes poor Valerian look like he has a double-chin…he looks much slimmer and younger on your coin. :) [ATTACH=full]1438750[/ATTACH] Valerian I, Cilicia, Corycus, (AE 36 mm, 20.02 g).
