Finn235 Pillar of the Community United States 6130 Posts	Posted 09/26/2017 10:57 am Licinius I, Trier, AE Follis. 316 AD. IMP LICINIVS P F AVG, laureate, draped and cuirassed bust right / GENIO POP ROM, Genius standing left, turret on head, loins draped, holding patera and cornucopiae. T- F across fields. Mintmark ATR. RIC VII Trier 120. Not quite as nice as the Crispus it shipped with, but a solid, respectable coin and at about half the price, too! I had been looking for a nice Licinius portrait for some time; this one is in good style and doesn't look like a bearded Constantine. Report this Post to the Staff

Palouche Pillar of the Community Spain 2752 Posts	Posted 09/26/2017 5:34 pm Superb coin Finn235 with great detail. I've got a real soft spot for Licinius coins as his was the first ancient I ever bought.I hope you dont mind but I thought I'd post it as you might be interested. It's an Unlisted variant of RIC VII #155 as the emperors name is misspelled LICINUS Saludos Paul Report this Post to the Staff
