Eng5858 Pillar of the Community United States 1316 Posts	Posted 01/24/2013 11:30 pm Another Monster coin.. Justinian l 527- 565.. AD.. Year 12 Nicomedia.. Mint 45mm x 22.22g.. I need to find more about this coin... Well it looks like the person I got this from misattributed it, Thanks to VK great eye I think we have it right now... The person that gave it to me had an article on Constantine lV, which looked alot like this coin.. had to put it in a ASE flip because of the size..

dougsmit Pillar of the Community United States 1549 Posts	Posted 01/25/2013 07:20 am Justinian year 12 - do a little research to see what Justinian was faced with when this coin was only a couple years old. It is interesting and not pretty. The coin is safe by now. Report this Post to the Staff
