Frogman2000 Valued Member United States 172 Posts	Posted 11/24/2019 4:42 pm I've been a coin collector for a few years but I've never bought any roman coins or did research on them and I got this lil guy for my birthday! Could anybody identity it? * Moved by Staff moved to a more appropriate forum. * Edited by Frogman2000 11/24/2019 4:43 pm Report this Post to the Staff

louisvillekyshop CCF Advertiser United States 1306 Posts	Posted 11/25/2019 2:00 pm I went back and forth but I think based on the arm placement and perhaps I see the "T" now as well Theodosius. Compared below, Valentinian II, then your coin, then Theodosius. (I say that because this was one of the few Velentinian coins in my example I could find with the arm bent like that. I found more examples with Theodisous.) Edited by louisvillekyshop 11/25/2019 2:18 pm Report this Post to the Staff
paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 11/25/2019 10:07 pm When I see the staurogram in the left reverse field with the poor fellow being dragged along by his hair I think Arcadius or Theodosius so I agree it's probably a Theodosius issue. I can see what looks like DN THEOD ... AVG, and SALVS REI PVBL.. is pretty clear on the reverse.

Kushanshah Pillar of the Community United States 1554 Posts	Posted 11/25/2019 10:48 pm I agree, Theodosius II. [D]N THEOD... is reasonably clear to the left of the bust. Report this Post to the Staff
