That's a Philip 1 with a better standards reverse. I see not only are you guys buying some better grade silvers but better reverse types too. Excellent coin!

A nice antoninianus:
Obv: IMPPHILIPPVSAVG - Radiate, draped and cuirassed bust right.
Rev: FIDESEXERCITVS - Four standards, the third from right has an eagle atop it.

I'd call it VF or VF+ missing a higher grade due to a couple weak letters (L, CIT) and the spots. I believe a coin needs to be just a bit higher in eye appeal to get EF but suspect ebay level dealers would disagree with this. |

Although there are some very minor problems with the coin, I would grade it as VF+. Details on both sides are fairly sharp and the portrait is excellent. Legends are complete as well. Nice find.
