Yeoldecoins Valued Member 384 Posts	Posted 11/09/2013 07:22 am Can you post another pic of the top one uncropped.....some lettering is still visible such as AVG at the bottom right and of course any other letters will be invaluable......(some may be present at the top left too) because it says AVG it helps with dating because in the Tetrachy there were two Augustii and two caesars.....and we know when the change over occured with each death or as with Diocletian and Maximianus (abdication).

Masis Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 946 Posts	Posted 11/09/2013 2:00 pm The last one is an Ottoman "Akche". Mint of "Qustantiniya" (Constantinople/Istanbul) The date appears to be 1099 A.H. (1721 A.D.) Perhaps of Sultan Ahmed III, 1703 - 1730 A.D. By that date the Akche was becoming debased, no longer pure Silver. Report this Post to the Staff
