Sap Moderator Australia 16808 Posts	Posted 08/30/2011 8:57 pm Byzantine Empire, class C anonymous follis dated to the reign of Michael IV, 1034-1041 AD. Rotate the bottom pic 90 degrees clockwise and the lettering in the corners of the cross reads "IC XC NI KA" - Jesus Christ Victorious. Somewhere in the top pic is a portrait of Jesus. In better condition, your coin would look more like this. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C.
