CoinCollector2000 Pillar of the Community United States 2563 Posts	Posted 09/29/2013 8:23 pm I was looking for a Roman coin to add to my collection, so I picked one up for $6, not bad I think. Well I want to know a value on it. http://www.ebay.com/itm/2M13-Fine-B...141070387337 Report this Post to the Staff

FVRIVS RVFVS Pillar of the Community United States 3449 Posts	Posted 09/29/2013 9:51 pm Well you need remember that 'Max' was an indomitable fellow. Forced to retire by his colleague and benefactor Diocletian he made a second grab for the 'gold' and issued coinage along with his son Maxentius. After being forced out a second time he made a third attempt by trying to subvert his son inlaw Constantine. Constantine gave the old boy a 'hair cut' before Max had a chance to issue any more coinage (too bad really). The coinage of the period is unusual and as yet quite affordable. You can pick up some little VF/EF gems for $25 and less. Report this Post to the Staff
