Attractive portrait and great reverse
-
Thanks, from what I can tell by that photo, it looks like the coin and core are silver. This looks like a completely fine silver denarius.

I feel like the market for popular coins is strong, owls, Alexander's, Caesars , etc. Since covid at least. I don't pay much attention, but just a general feeling.

If you are stuck to your phone camera, take the coin outside, and take steady focused closeup photos of the side of the coin and the chip. Maybe we can see more details.

Hard to tell from the photos as they are not the greatest. but at 3g, it was probably in the 3.5g range before the chipping and accounting for the wear. I would say prob not a fourree. Great find!

Die links - mint-mates reunited after their travels

Awesome! Congrats. -
Been looking for an example I could afford, but they don't seem to come up to often..until today. Dealer photo and description.. VESPASIAN AR silver denarius. Judaea (Judea) Capta. IMP CAESAR VESPASIANVS AVG, laureate head right. Reverse - Captive Jewess seated right, hands tied before, trophy of captured arms behind, IVDAEA in exergue. 17mm, 3.0g. RCV 2296. One of the more highly sought after Roman Imperial denarii, due to its historical significance, celebrating the 'Judea Capta' in 69 AD. This issue is often struck on quite small flans

Feel better soon, I have been dealing with it almost 2 weeks now. I feel like I got it back to back. It's nasty thing.

I don't think it's cast, show us the side of the coin? it looks like horn silver. Nice coin. Looks fine to me. I have cleaned hornsilver and this looks like the after math.

"Render unto Caesar"... What is your Tribute Penny?
AETHER replied to Salomons Cat's topic in Roman Empire
Beautiful coins, I have two examples which I think are likely a "tribute penny" and kinda low grade, but I don't mind and enjoy the honest wear- 22 replies

Cool dude, I'm enjoying reading the writeups.. however on my phone, your hyperlinked text appears to be almost the same color as the background making in hard to read, some feedback Incase you wish to address this.. I'm on an Android btw using chrome, haven't tested other devices You can see the example in the text from "2)" and "3)"
