VisigothKing Pillar of the Community United States 4778 Posts	Posted 01/05/2013 9:35 pm Found this AE4 sized coin listed for sale but I am at a loss to what exactly it is. Roman, Byzantine, imitative, maybe even Vandal/other Germanic? Anyone have a clue? Thanks. Obverse has a large S. Edited by VisigothKing 01/05/2013 9:37 pm Report this Post to the Staff

echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 01/06/2013 09:34 am Neat little coin, I agree with Bobby it is Heraclius. It's a 6 nummi coin from the Alexandria mint, Sear #862. Report this Post to the Staff

VisigothKing Pillar of the Community United States 4778 Posts	Posted 01/07/2013 7:34 pm Nice work and thanks for the help bobby, looks like you hit the ID dead-on. To be honest though I am a bit disappointed: was hoping it was Germanic, especially since it resembles a certain Visigothic bronze type: (From Forvm's gallery) Man I want this coin (better yet, any Visigoth coin will do ) Edited by VisigothKing 01/07/2013 7:35 pm Report this Post to the Staff
