I'm new to all this forum posting topics stuff :). Please do not be so hard on me.
I am in desperate need for identifying some coins. They are very old, and they originate from the Balkans. Somewhere between towns of Pozarevac and Golubac (you can locate them on Google earth). That's all I know, but here are the scans.
I will post only one coin now. Don't wanna push my luck. Hope that there is someone somewhere, that will know how to identify this coin.
Thank you.
P.S.
Please do make any remarks on my spelling and grammar. :)

Hello and welcome to the forum.

This is a very nice early Byzantine period coin of what appears to be the emperor Leo I 457-474 AD. Obverse inscription is DN LEO PERPET AVG and the reverse inscription is GLORIA ROMANORVM from the Constantinople mint.

thank you echizento, I didn't expect answer that quick. I'm glad that I was wrong about my expectation. :)
And also I want to say thanks to the kind moderator :), I will try not to brake the rules, cause I'm the one asking for help here.
Greetings from Grom.
p.s.
soon I will scan another coin, so you can do the identification again.
