TheTrachyEnjoyer Posted November 14, 2022 · Member Share Posted November 14, 2022 https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/leontius-the-isaurian-usurper-484-488ad/ The last time I saw a privately owned Leontius anywhere was from the online collection of felony criminal Martin Armstrong. As to whether this coin was also confiscated by the FEDs alongside many other coins and artifacts purchased with illicitly gained money, I have no idea. Perhaps none are left in private hands now 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
