The mint mark appears to be "THS", but I am not quite sure which mint this would be. Could it be Thessalonica? Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

Fancy! Constantius II FL IVL CONSTANTIVS NOB C GLOR-IA EXERC-ITVS TRS wreath at top RIC VII Trier 551 r1 330-348 AD Report this Post to the Staff

Archraz Pillar of the Community United States 3499 Posts	Posted 05/24/2013 7:51 pm BenByfield- Also, given that this coin is listed as being rare, do you think that it has any notable value? I mean, while I don't expect this coin to be worth a lot, I should hope that I got a good deal on it considering that I paid 2 quid for it. Report this Post to the Staff

Ben Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 4208 Posts	Posted 05/24/2013 7:57 pm Fraid no notable value - there are just too may rare coins out there. I'm sure someone would pay more for it, but its not getting you a new house. I have many a 'rare' coin - the only ones worth a premium are scarce emperors, reverses or busts. You did alright for Â£2 because its an R1, but id probably stay around 80p for such a coin in bulk. Although,the ones with the wreaths are pretty scarce. Report this Post to the Staff
