Lucky Cuss Pillar of the Community United States 4883 Posts	Posted 02/25/2019 7:41 pm I had the good fortune today to be the first retail customer to get to look through an unsorted group of ancients (some Greek, some Roman) that a shop I frequent had purchased. The overall condition of the lot wasn't all that terrific, but I picked this one out on account of the realism the portrait and eagle exhibited. It's about 18 by 19 mm in size, with a weight that comes in just the tiniest bit over 6 grams. Colligo ergo sum Report this Post to the Staff

Lucky Cuss Pillar of the Community United States 4883 Posts	Posted 02/26/2019 11:46 pm I see it on the Wildwinds site, where it's identified as Moushmov 5971 (the same as the acsearch.info link referenced above). The example they show there is way nicer than mine. See: http://www.wildwinds.com/coins/gree...mov_5971.jpg Colligo ergo sum Report this Post to the Staff
