<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gsimonel, post: 3599004, member: 82549&quot;]Here&#039;s another interesting Vandalic-era imitatative, or which I know nothing:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]962823[/ATTACH]</p><p>Size is 10.2 x 10.7 mm, weight is 1.2g.</p><p>The inscriptions and mint mark are gibberish, they do not appear to be Latin letters. The reverse looks like Victory with a barbarous cross or tau-rho in the left field.</p><p><br /></p><p>Stylistically, the coin reminds me of Iberian celts, but I&#039;m not sure if they were still around when this coin was made, which I&#039;m guessing was probably around the mid 5th-early 6th century. Were they conquered/absorbed by the Vandals or Visigoths, or did they maintain a separate identity?</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, if anyone has any other information or thoughts about this coin (<a href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/any-vandalic-era-specialists-out-there.342314/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/any-vandalic-era-specialists-out-there.342314/">or the other I posted</a>) I&#039;d sure appreciate hearing from you. Thanks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
