Finn235 Pillar of the Community United States 6130 Posts	Posted 04/07/2017 4:36 pm Reverse is VICTOR-IAAVGGG: http://www.tesorillo.com/aes/100/100i.htm As listed on that page, that reverse is host to some very rare emperors. Take your time, clean carefully, and hope for the best! (In all reality, 99.999% chance it's just Theodosius, Honorius, or Arcadius.) Report this Post to the Staff
