The first three seem fairly easy to ID. They appear to be my favorite Marcian. All well and good enough ! The next two I had tentatively ID'd as Leo. But now I am unsure of number two. Probably number one too ! So who are they ? BTW I never liked paying big money for something I might lose in a flash to the wife's vacuum cleaner ! Hammer price was $22 for 5 coins the size of bunny poop ! Report this Post to the Staff

Ancientnoob Pillar of the Community United States 5155 Posts	Posted 05/16/2015 10:25 pm Ben and VK have some extensive knowledge on these, at least the bottom two could be official, barbarous, or Vandal imitations of Theodosius II. Not sure though. Report this Post to the Staff
