Archeo1982 Pillar of the Community Netherlands 521 Posts	Posted 01/10/2018 10:11 am I just finished the cleaning process today. It came out really good. Better than I expected, to be honest. If we compare it with other known denari of this type, a couple of things stand out: The Charlemagne monogram is heavily simplified on this denarius. The reverse also has a divergent monogram. It's also in another position, compared with other ET LANG AC PAT denari. The complete legend on this piece is: Side one: + CARLVS REX FR Side two: + ET LANG AC PA Edited by Archeo1982 01/10/2018 12:14 pm Report this Post to the Staff
