Eddop Valued Member Netherlands 409 Posts	Posted 02/18/2013 01:44 am With two dots it must be Heraclea, take a look at the ANS database: http://numismatics.org/search/resul...ue&start=160 Ed Report this Post to the Staff
echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 02/18/2013 07:44 am Hope I'm not confusing things more, I went back to Helevtica and with the .XXI. it's RIC V-II 284 Heraclea. Edited by echizento 02/18/2013 07:54 am Report this Post to the Staff

IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36905 Posts	Posted 02/18/2013 11:09 am echizento I think you nailed it! It is a perfect match for RIC V 284A, Diocletian AE antoninianus. Heraclea, AD 291. IMP C C VAL DIOCLETIANVS PF AVG, radiate, draped and cuirassed bust right / CONCORDIA MILITVM, Jupiter presents Victory on a globe to Diocletian. Delta between them. Mintmark dot XXI dot. Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff
Eddop Valued Member Netherlands 409 Posts	Posted 02/18/2013 1:45 pm I'am sorry disturbing your party but it can't be that RIC number, your obverse titel is IMP CC VAL DIOCLETIANVS AVG. not IMP CC VAL DIOCLETIANVS PF AVG. So Heraclea but not in RIC with this obverse titel I would say. Report this Post to the Staff
echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 02/18/2013 1:55 pm Ed I didn't catch that there was no PF, so it couldn't be 284. So I agree it's not listed in RIC. Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36905 Posts	Posted 02/18/2013 2:04 pm Now that lets the air out of my balloon. So it's not 306 or 284. Report this Post to the Staff
echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 02/18/2013 2:26 pm Doesn't appear to be. It's one of those coins that just didn't make it into RIC. Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36905 Posts	Posted 02/24/2013 4:03 pm After receiving the coin, I am thinking that this is not a dot XXI dot. Here are photos, what are your thoughts? If it's just a XXI dot, are we looking at RIC 306 again? Report this Post to the Staff
echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 02/24/2013 4:40 pm It does look like XXI dot. Report this Post to the Staff
