I'm new to coin collecting so please excuse if there is a very simple answer to this question, but I'm stumped on this coin. Not the best shape but on the front I can pick out ?NTIVS? there between 1 and 3 o'clock, so one of the Constantines, Constantius , or C. Gallus, but the back has got me. Soldiers with 1 standard but I it looks like a cross on the banner, and I can't find a coin to match that (I did find an emperor holding a cross on banner, but not soldiers) with those rulers. Or is that not a cross? Maybe a deteriorated Chi Rho or something else I'm mistaking for a cross? Thanks a bunch! Chris Report this Post to the Staff
