ccg Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Pictures are taking too long to load - they seem to be quite large. Perhaps you could resize them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarveyJMartha Posted July 18, 2013 Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 Looks like an ancient Roman coin, not sure though. You can try your luck by browsing through this numismatist coin gallery. And yes, the pictures are taking l-o-n-g time to load. I’m unable to make out whether the coin is legit, however if this coin has a strong collector base like Silver Morgan Dollar , I’d suggest you get it assayed from a reputed company.

ccg Posted July 19, 2013 Report Share Posted July 19, 2013 Thank you - though the new pictures are a bit small to clearly identify it, it appears to be a "campgate" AE3 type from the early 300s (310s-320s AD), from the Constantinian dynasty. Can't really say for sure from the pictures, but it's not a type I'd expect to encounter a fake of, though it is in what appears to be rather nice condition for the type.

Arminius Posted July 20, 2013 Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 Yes, a camp-gate reverse type from the Constantine family. The attached files are too big or the loading server too slow to say more details. Re-size and reload the pictures with picture editing software, eg. irfanview freeware: http://www.irfanview.com/ regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AustinClarke Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 These pictures are not clear enough to be identified. I am sorry I am not sure and therefore, cannot say anything on it. It is better to stay quite then delivering wrong information. ___________ silver brokers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
