avialevi18 Posted January 9, 2017 Report Share Posted January 9, 2017 When I checked on the internet I was able to conclude that the coin is from the time of Mauricius Tiberius Augustus - Emperor of the Byzantine Empire, I found a several similar coins but not exactly that one. I'd like to get information about this coin and to know what is the current value. Thanks :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Following the devastating earthquake of 526 a cross appeared in the sky over Antioch. The city was thus renamed Theopolis - the City of God - in 528.

Arminius Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 Well you should not tell your boss what you think about him or the company. On coin shows you may find these for 5-20 $ in junkboxes, better qualities may reach 20-120 $ in webstores or auctions. Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
