Matteproof Pillar of the Community Korea, Republic Of 1881 Posts	Posted 08/20/2014 11:26 am I don't think 3) matches the Licinius posted in the ID, because the coin I have has lettering also above his head and the portrait looks different. Neither do I think 1) was identified correctly as the portrait looks different and also there are big differences in the lettering. Any more ideas..? Report this Post to the Staff

I believe your obverse legend reads DN VALENTINI ANUS PF AVG Scroll through this list and you can see the different varieties for this reverse type: http://www.coinproject.com/search_e...&sort=legend Also, here is an example with the same legend break as your coin: Report this Post to the Staff
