It's still quite long, and the mintmark beginning with SM doesn't help much as a lot of mints start with SM, but at least you can also filter out Arelate and Lugdunum https://finds.org.uk/romancoins/art...entury-mints It looks, though, like the emperor has a rosette diadem (not pearl), so put that in the Keyword search too. That should leave you about 40 coins to look through. The mintmark has a dot before the S, which will be very important to identification, as there only seem to be 4 coins with dot-SM?A and only 2 with also no dot at the end.

I believe the mintmark is SMNA. I tried using a lens to zoom, see if you agree with me. Report this Post to the Staff
