jessvc1 Pillar of the Community United States 2596 Posts	Posted 12/12/2011 1:07 pm I know these arent the best pictures but when I bought this coin they gave me the wrong RIC number so I just want to know if any of you guys can spot this. What RIC number would you give this coin? Report this Post to the Staff

jessvc1 Pillar of the Community United States 2596 Posts	Posted 12/12/2011 1:17 pm The mint mark has been pretty much worn off but there is a way to tell from what was explained to me and it makes sense. Report this Post to the Staff
bobbyhelmet Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2838 Posts	Posted 12/12/2011 1:24 pm It looks like RIC V-1, 220 Siscia to me - I must admit thought I had trouble separating it from RIC V-1, 128 Milan. Is this where the seller confused it? Report this Post to the Staff
Gil-galad Pillar of the Community United States 2044 Posts	Posted 12/12/2011 1:28 pm I was just about to post that I think it's RIC 220 as well. Report this Post to the Staff
bobbyhelmet Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2838 Posts	Posted 12/12/2011 1:34 pm These two numbers descriptions are very similar. One Fortuna is sitting 'on' the wheel while the other is sitting 'by' the wheel. Their mintmarks do differ as the 220 has a star with its workshop number whereas the 128 only has the workshop number. What is the mintmark jessvc1 - I cant quite work it out. Report this Post to the Staff

echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 12/12/2011 7:38 pm Without the mint mark being visible it could be either 128 or 220. Does RIC define a variation in the pattern to determine the difference? Report this Post to the Staff
