Ben Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 4208 Posts	Posted 08/15/2013 4:43 pm Looks to be VOT X MVLT X X. Hard to sayw ithout it in hand. I think the end reads DIVS PF AVG - making it arcadius. Perhaps Theodosius - is it SIVS or DIVS? Possibly RIVS, but honorius didnt seem to issue Votive types. Report this Post to the Staff

pishpash Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 3626 Posts	Posted 08/15/2013 4:55 pm Still looks like a cow. I think you are right Ben, it is a Theo. I have no mint to go on so I will have to look at all the portraits tomorrow. Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff
Ben Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 4208 Posts	Posted 08/15/2013 5:17 pm There is a coin like that of the founders of various veteran colonies with them ploughing the land. Took me a long whileto learn the various coin types. Have you got Tesorillo bookmarked? It might help to click through a few of the pages there to help you get used to the shapes of the common designs. Report this Post to the Staff
