Title: HAIL Caeser, I mean JON... Post by: jtalbot0001 on October 26, 2011, 07:53:30 PM I managed to find this yesterday afternoon after a few hours detecting before I got HAILED on and drenched, but well worth it I say :) It has to be my second best Roman Coin ever, for condition wise, its near perfect, practically minted before it was lost I say. Not the best pictures, sorry, the camera doesnt do it justice.
' It's a commemorative issue with winged Victory and showing Constantine, minted in Germany in 332-333AD. Title: Re: HAIL Caeser, I mean JON... Post by: handyman [Alan} on October 26, 2011, 08:00:55 PM great find, and for anyone not sure how to ID the mintmarks, i use this link ..
