mymy Posted November 27, 2023 · Member Share Posted November 27, 2023 I'm going crazy trying to figure out what I have here. No info on it at all. That beautiful penny pictured is just for size comparison. It's so tiny, is it even a coin? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPK Posted November 28, 2023 · Supporter Share Posted November 28, 2023 Welcome to the Forum! Definitely looks like very late Roman, perhaps early Byzantine? I'm sure there are others here who will be able to give more specific information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akeady Posted November 28, 2023 · Supporter Share Posted November 28, 2023 It's probably an AE4 , or possibly a Byzantine, as CPK says above. A very useful site for identifying late Roman coins is Tesorillo - there are a few possibilities for coins with crosses on the reverse: Tesorillo - crosses It looks somewhat like a woman on the obverse, which might be Galla Placidia, according to Tesorillo. It's a pity there's no readable legend. ATB, Aidan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
