echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 12/15/2014 7:17 pm I'm more concerned with the obverse legend, depending on the letters it could be Galerius. Report this Post to the Staff

Ben Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 4208 Posts	Posted 12/15/2014 7:22 pm Yep, Magnus Maximus. The legend reads DN MAG MAX-IMVS P[F AVG]. Quite a nice one and actually quite a rare emperor in some parts (Usurpers and regional rulers can be common in their region but command high prices when they dont show up so often in middle easten and european lots).

echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 12/15/2014 8:20 pm A much better coin than Maximinus II, not even close to that. That's why old guys like me need to see better detail looking in the wrong place. Nice find. Report this Post to the Staff
