<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ValiantKnight, post: 1849963, member: 44210&quot;]I got it today, and while the mintmark isn&#039;t a lot clearer (I think I see a bit more of the R when its soaking), I found the obverse legend ending in PP A. According to Helvetica, this obverse legend, with XX with only a cross above makes this indeed a Rome mint issue:</p><p><br /></p><p><u><b>Tiberius II Constantine</b></u></p><p>AE Half-follis</p><p>Obv: DM TIB CONSTANT PP A</p><p>Rev: XX, cross above, ROM in ex</p><p>Rome mint, struck 578-582 AD</p><p>SB 467</p><p><br /></p><p>There is a possibility that this one and similar coins were actually issued by a military mint in Italy using the ROM mintmark, but I&#039;ve found next to nothing about that online, so I&#039;ll just classify this one as official.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
