May as well throw in a second coin then.

Another new addition, uncleaned, Carausius, unknown reverse, no mint mark. Possibly barbaric.

BRONZE - Bing - Four Tetrarchs. A very nice design.
SILVER - Chrs - Probus + Eagle tipped sceptre + Quadriga - what a combination.
GOLD - Steve - Maxentius with Rom, Rem and Lupa in the pediment. What a coin. The die cutter took pride in that one.

Thanks to Chrsmat for the Gold! And a great competition too - lots of great coins.
