Paul Bulgerin Pillar of the Community United States 3098 Posts	Posted 05/19/2015 11:01 pm I like that the Justinian has a full obverse legend. You don't see that too often on those little Byzantine bronzes. Paul Bulgerin Report this Post to the Staff
echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 05/19/2015 11:41 pm Wow you only paid $4 for the Ivan, I've seen ones in very worn condition sell for $40. Don't know where you found them but I wish I could find ones so cheap. Report this Post to the Staff
