The name on #4 reads "MAKREIN..." - that would be emperor Macrinus.

As always t0rress some interesting and different coins  Quote:
The name on #4 reads "MAKREIN..." - that would be emperor Macrinus. The reverse looks like it could be Apollo standing with a patera in right hand and a branch in left. Maybe from Thrace? Did you ever find any matches on-line for this coin t0rress? https://goccf.com/t/108947&SearchTerms=t0rressWith the buildings on the reverse it was probably the most interesting ancient I've seen in years! You should re-up the pictures, its a thread worth keeping as so little info and so few examples can be found on the web. |
