echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 04/29/2017 5:09 pm I believe it's Heraclius, from the Cyzicus mint, indicated year II (613/14 or 627/28) officina A. Sear # 839. Nice coin. Report this Post to the Staff

echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 04/30/2017 01:13 am Yes, some mints put more effort into striking decent coins. I suspect this was struck while the dies were still fairly new. Report this Post to the Staff
