Man I got to tell ya these late Roman emperors are tough. Except for minor differences in the jaw and eyes the really look alike. The overall appearance, diadem and bust style are all very similar. A great example of what money should have "looked" like at the time. I gaining great appreciation for these later guys. Again great game.

Okay, now heres a tough one! I've owned this coin for quite a while and its only been a short time since I learned which way up the reverse goes. This is the obverse and yes, this is the bust. Its in pretty shoddy grade because of how the finder cleaned it but rest assured that there is no detail missing from the bust.
