Kamnaskires Pillar of the Community United States 7066 Posts	Posted 12/15/2015 9:20 pm Looks possibly like antoniniani of Maximianus and Aurelian. Obverse legends may be (1) IMP C M AVR VAL MAXIMIANVS P F AVG and (2) IMP AVRELIANVS AVG (perhaps similar to the one below?) Lots of Roman experts around here...I'm sure some will help. IMP AVRELIANVS AVG, radiate, cuirassed bust right / CONSERVAT AVG, Sol walking left, holding globe and raising right hand, treading on seated captive at foot.

Biancasdad Pillar of the Community United States 1045 Posts	Posted 12/15/2015 11:38 pm Second coin as Bob says is Aurelian. Antioch mint RIC 385 Edited by Biancasdad 12/15/2015 11:38 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Russ789 Pillar of the Community United States 623 Posts	Posted 12/16/2015 4:17 pm Thank you for the help! Curious...either of them valuable? Report this Post to the Staff
Biancasdad Pillar of the Community United States 1045 Posts	Posted 12/17/2015 03:59 am Ancients are surprisingly cheap. The Maximianius might fetch $10-15US and the Aurelian a few dollars. Still, two authentic ancient Roman coins packed with some rich history Edited by Biancasdad 12/17/2015 04:59 am Report this Post to the Staff
