Lucky Cuss Pillar of the Community United States 4883 Posts	Posted 12/17/2021 10:10 pm I'm often capable of figuring out what these specifically are, but this one due to its advanced state of wear is a bit beyond my abilities. My impression from its style is that it's not a late coin. The emperor looks to be young. I can read "Caesar" at the end of the obverse legend. The reverse appears to depict Roma holding Victory. I imagine somebody will recognize it. 23 mm in diameter, weight is 8.24 grams. Colligo ergo sum Report this Post to the Staff

Kamnaskires Pillar of the Community United States 7066 Posts	Posted 12/17/2021 10:48 pm Maybe Thessalonica? Reverse legend might be some variant of Θ#400;#1017;#1017;ΑΛΟΝΙΚ#400;ΩΝ Nike with Kabeiros reverse? Edit: sorry, but the cut-and-paste of the Greek is not working.

My initial impression had been that the portrait resembled Severus Alexander, but I was hesitant to say so. Colligo ergo sum Report this Post to the Staff
