Whoever figures out the real name that the Romans gave these coins gets 1000000 points and automatically wins!  |

Thanks for the invite A.M. but I am not ready yet. I have been made to feel guilty (Lol) by another member of this forum about the lack of 'Organization' of my collection (that has grown like 'topsy'), so you can expect to hear less from me as I attempt to bring some semblance of order to a (very) chaotic situation. Having started collecting 'Modern' and exhausting those in three countries; 6 months ago I came to Ancients, and I have well over 500 (Ancient) coins but less than 10% are 'categorized'. So you see that I have my work cut out for me. Don't be surprised if you see 450 'Ancients' up on ebay as a job lot, soon. That would cut my workload down. (Haha) I did post a coin on TIFs thread that I need some help with, though. Edited by Topcat7

 So I take it you don't have a Siliqua. Another reason I collect only Romans ( perhaps a rare soviet here and there) You are always more than welcome to post here T.C.  Echizento where art thou ! Edited by Augustus Maximus

I hope I get this right. Siliqua, Constantinus III (hard to read) Mint: Lugdunum Condition: small portion of flan broken, clipped (?) Did I get that right?   |

Thank you for the I.D, Medieval.
The legend is a little hard to read, and seems to be missing a letter or two on the reverse as well.

Except for the blurred N (above the head) on the obverse and the top of the first of the three 'A's on the reverse the legend is complete. The description on Wildwinds is missing an 'A' if you look at the coins, the reverse should read "VICTORI-AAAVGGG".
