Doucet Pillar of the Community United States 1315 Posts	Posted 02/26/2013 6:02 pm That third coin on the right looks very interesting. I agree it does appear to be Carthaginian. The portrait looks like a billon issue. Will look into it further. Edited by Doucet 02/26/2013 6:10 pm Report this Post to the Staff

FVRIVS RVFVS Pillar of the Community United States 3439 Posts	Posted 02/26/2013 6:05 pm I mean to say the second is a Sestertius which would seem to be second century by the reverse. But the front is quite impossible to ID. Report this Post to the Staff
