january1may Pillar of the Community Russian Federation 5174 Posts	Posted 06/17/2018 2:10 pm Some weird guy at a weekend flea market had a bag of lower-grade ancient coins that he was selling for slightly under a dollar each. Most of the bag was Pantikapaion AEs, which I could hardly care less about, but I did find a few coins that I did want to buy... This is the first of those. I'm sure I recognize the design from some Roman provincial I've seen, but my memory is nowhere near good enough to say which one it was exactly. If that helps: 18x17 mm, 2.8 grams. Not actually that ugly in hand - the flash lighting overemphasized the surface corrosion. Report this Post to the Staff
