Medieval Pillar of the Community 3772 Posts	Posted 10/05/2014 10:07 pm 'Ancientnoob' as so often you show an interesting group but half (or more) of the enjoyment is gone because one cannot make out details of some coins. Nice green patina and nice trachys, but show them in a better light (aka size). Will have to have a look if I have some more (half way worthy) Byzantines to display. Btw, didn't know that US 'Pennies' were struck by the Byzantines Report this Post to the Staff
echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 10/05/2014 10:38 pm Extremely rare trachy of Theodore Mangaphas 1188-1189, None have ever been record for sale at auction. I sold this to a private collector several years ago for a goodly sum. Report this Post to the Staff
