Ben Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 4208 Posts	Posted 02/24/2015 2:36 pm Heres one I got for a couple of quid. VICTORIA AVGG, no obverse legend, most likely Valentinian III but could be more recent. Report this Post to the Staff

Augustus Maximus Pillar of the Community Italy 1790 Posts	Posted 02/24/2015 2:48 pm I am not much help with these small 5th century pieces, it could very well be Valentinian III( the turd) though. I think you did well for a few pounds. Edited by Augustus Maximus 02/24/2015 5:16 pm Report this Post to the Staff
pishpash Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 3626 Posts	Posted 02/24/2015 5:14 pm That is a great little portrait Ben, difficult to say whether it is Valentinian III but a known reverse for him. I would put it down as "probably". Report this Post to the Staff
Ben Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 4208 Posts	Posted 02/24/2015 6:00 pm It was issued for Constantius II, Constans, Magnus Maximus, Arcadius, Honorius, Theodosius II, Johannes, Valentinian III, Avitus, Majorianus and Leo I. Stylistically, I'd put it in the range Theodosius II - Valentinian III (or even the very end of Honorius, which is itself very interesting due to the Avitus Problem). The victory is engraved in the rome mint style, but at this time that is hardly diagnostically useful due to the great variation at all mints. Report this Post to the Staff
