wheatchaser140 Pillar of the Community United States 2368 Posts	Posted 10/17/2014 3:05 pm Hey everyone. I just won this coin from an ebay auction. Link below: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Aracadius-3...047675.l2557 I had a few questions. Is it genuine? And is the information about the coin in this listing correct? How's the condition? The seller seems legit, and so did the coin, and I just wanted a consensus from the experts here. Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 10/17/2014 3:14 pm Arcadius from the Antioch mint. This is a nice example with some of the sand patina left on the coin. Coins from this mint are a bit more desirable than most other mints. I would grade it at aVF. (about very fine). Report this Post to the Staff

VisigothKing Pillar of the Community United States 4778 Posts	Posted 10/17/2014 10:13 pm Pretty good for $12. Are you just starting out collecting ancients? Definitely the kind of coin that beginners should shoot for IMO. Report this Post to the Staff

wheatchaser140 Pillar of the Community United States 2368 Posts	Posted 10/18/2014 08:55 am I think I may have found my coin on wildwinds! http://www.wildwinds.com/coins/ric/...RIC_063f.jpg Report this Post to the Staff
Medieval Pillar of the Community 3772 Posts	Posted 10/18/2014 09:12 am Hotlinking images from Wildwinds does not work (blocked to avoid too much traffic for Wildwinds) - but I assume you refer to RIC#63e. The description is right but the image seems to be a coin with rosette diadem. Yours is definitely a pearl diadem. Report this Post to the Staff
