chrsmat71 Pillar of the Community United States 4981 Posts	Posted 05/09/2014 9:48 pm my first thought was romanus iii, I have one pretty similar. it must be class b, because that's what I wrote on my coin flip...but i'll be darned if I can keep straight which class is which on these anonymous coins.

Johndakerftw Valued Member Canada 93 Posts	Posted 05/09/2014 10:10 pm Thanks for the id, it really helps! I was wondering what the going rate on it would be. I've looked on ebay and saw different price ranges. I don't plan to sell it, it's my second ancient coin after my widow's mite. I'm just curious. Thanks again! Erin Report this Post to the Staff
