Finn235 Pillar of the Community United States 6130 Posts	Posted 11/20/2015 02:09 am Next up on my list of coins that show promise but have me stumped: Obverse: Bareheaded portrait right, reminds me very, very much of Tiberius Reverse Figure standing, holding lituus (?) and something hanging from right hand. Looks like a second bareheaded bust was overstruck on the reverse If this is indeed a Tiberius (I could be way off base), it would have to be a provincial or maybe a semis. Searched the whole Wildwinds page on tiberius, and couldn't find anything. Based on the style, I am guessing this is at least Roman. Report this Post to the Staff

My opinion? Pehaps Tiberius, but if it is, it of of a Roman colonial style. Report this Post to the Staff
