ttkoo Pillar of the Community Australia 2516 Posts	Posted 12/18/2023 7:42 pm This Æ 14Ø 1.52g needs a home in my album, and from the uncleaned coin I think (stressed THINK) it could be a VALENTINIANVS PF AVG / VICTORIA AVGGG I picked VICTORIA AVGGG from the leg stance, the wide separation of the wing to the body , and the almost hip-height of the wreath. Now the odds are that I am off the mark, as I tend to get fixated on the one possibility that stands out the most to me anyway. There are other possibilities of the ruler, but I don't think their name ends in IVS because that 3rd last letter in hand does not resemble an I. Looking at Tesorillo, the other possibilities seem to be ruled out by the positioning of the obverse legend. So perhaps VALENTINIAN II There are remnants of the mint in exergue that I would appreciate your help with, could the mint be ROM? As always, many thanks in advance.

Tanman2001 Pillar of the Community United States 4398 Posts	Posted 12/18/2023 8:42 pm Maybe Valentinian I, SECVRITAS REIPVBLICAE reverse from Antioch. Looks like mint could be ANTH with the A off flan. One of these types: https://numismatics.org/ocre/id/ric.9.anch.12A https://numismatics.org/ocre/id/ric.9.anch.36A Report this Post to the Staff
ttkoo Pillar of the Community Australia 2516 Posts	Posted 12/26/2023 6:35 pm Tanman, thanks for the response. Sorry I missed it before. Yes it could well be a SECVRITAS REIPVBLICAE, Antioch mint. Cheers Grant The Ox moves slowly, but the Earth is patient. Report this Post to the Staff
