chuy1530 Pillar of the Community United States 513 Posts	Posted 09/01/2014 7:23 pm My "Promising: To Be Identified" pile of coins is getting a little too big so I've been going through it today. This one stuck out due to size and a pretty distinctive reverse. 9.6 mm, .44 g. It might be a lost cause but I figured if anybody might know where to start looking they'd probably be here . I have no clue on the correct orientation of the reverse. Report this Post to the Staff

VisigothKing Pillar of the Community United States 4778 Posts	Posted 09/01/2014 7:34 pm Looks like a VOT MVLT reverse. The letters are not clear on the obverse but I keep thinking Arcadius for some reason. It could also be a contemporary counterfeit. Report this Post to the Staff

chuy1530 Pillar of the Community United States 513 Posts	Posted 09/01/2014 11:12 pm Looking at some Theo IIs and Acardius issues I'm thinking you (and knight) are correct. Thanks for the help so far everybody! Edited by chuy1530 09/01/2014 11:13 pm Report this Post to the Staff
