Hello friends,

Just received my Delmatius with the alternate "Dalmatius" spelling, and I thought I would share it with everyone. And, of course, I am still working with my Iphone so the pictures aren't that great.

O: FL DALMATIVS NOB C, laureate, draped & cuirassed bust right

R: GLORI-A EXER-CITVS, two soldiers, each holding reversed spear & resting on shield, standing on either side of standard, SMTSε in exergue

1.4g, 17.6mm, 180 degree die axis, 335-337AD

Very nice Biancasdad,

It's got a great patina and it's another coin that has a stern portrait.

Thanks all!

Jess, I have been fiddling with my Iphone for about 6 months and I find I get the best results by using the zoom just a little bit. I hold my finger on the actual screen of the phone where the snapshot button is and then bring the phone really close to the coin until it is clearly out of focus, then I move the phone away from the coin until it focuses and let my finger of the snapshot button so it snaps the shot as soon as I release my finger, then I immediately snap another shot. I do this many times, before downloading. One day I will figure out how to get better shots with the digital cameras we have!
