When I first bought this I searched through Wildwinds for reference, but didn't see an example. So I sent it in and now it's available for everyone to view Justinian I, AE follis. Antioch mint, AD 527-565. DN IVSTINIANVS PP AVG, pearl diademed, draped, cuirassed bust right / Large M, star in left field, cross above, star in right field, Γ below. Mintmark cross-THEV o over P-cross. SB 216, DOC 210. www.wildwinds.com/coins/byz/...nian_I/t.html
Quote: ...exceptionally good portrait for the type.
I agree, most portraits for this type are warn with hardly any detail. This is the best example I've seen that was in my price range, so I pounced on it!
