DAVEBENTO Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 I dug up this on my allotment .... I did a search online but can't find anyone with two flowers in his hair like this fella. Can anyone give me any info, date etc or direct me to a picture of a coin the same in good condition ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art1.2 Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Hi Dave and welcome to CoinPeople. We have a few folks who are really good at these coins but they tend to some on late at night. Perhaps tonight. Good luck with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccg Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Roman. "Fel Temp Reparatio" type depicting a soldier spearing a fallen horseman. Obverse appears to be Constantius II. c. mid-late 350s AD A Google image search for "fel temp reparatio" will bring up many nice examples of this type.
