TJsCoins Pillar of the Community United States 3229 Posts	Posted 12/24/2011 11:49 pm Any help with attribution and mint mark is appreciated. Not sure if this coin will reveal the exact emperor? So far I have it listed as a late Roman emperor. I think that the mint mark is Antioch. I think the reverse is Athena holding Victory? Happy Holidays! Thanks in advance!

Biancasdad Pillar of the Community United States 1045 Posts	Posted 12/25/2011 03:46 am Hello friends, I believe this coin is from Antioch which didn't mint this type for Constantius II. Instead, I believe this is actually Valens. RIC IX Antioch 12b. (Officina 1 or 4) O:DN VALENS-PF AVG, pearl-diademed, draped, cuirassed bust right R:SECVRITAS-REIPVBLICAE, Victory advancing left, holding wreath and palm branch. ANT[A or delta] in exergue Cheers, -Kurt Report this Post to the Staff
