There are multiple things that threw up flags in my head while looking at this picture, but I’m no master I can’t make a definitive statement either way. What do you vets think? Thanks for your feedback ahead of time! Hopefully I am just paranoid and this coin is fine and ready for purchase (the seller’s being super pushy and impatient) 😵💫

Wow thank you @Oldhoopster just goes to show I still have much to learn. I did not think it was even roman lol! and I was even more off thinking I new forsure that it wasn't constantinian coinage! I'm almost positive the latter picture is the coin I have, the reverse is extremely degraded but in certain lighting it certainly looks like the coin you posted. Thanks again!

wuuuttttt So anybody got any real information on the Hellenistic coin or the Constantine or just jokes lmao? I should probably just try image search and wildwinds and see if I can figure it myself, I have been since I first joined. Making more and more identifications. It's been a blast learning and learning @Mowhawk any idea about my OP coins & pictures?

Hey Tom, thanks for the extra website!! and no worries about your knowledge, what you're into is what you're into! I'm kinda starting to wish I was only interested in one subset of the ancient world like you, unfortunately I love it all!

@JKK would you be willing to help me with this? I can send pictures of all the coins and front and back and their weight, but as for diameter I can't measure anything until I'm able to get a caliper Mohawk told me about unfortunately, and while I'm on the topic of help, if the diameter is the most important part and we can't do much until measurement, instead of the Constantinian coins could we work together on some other ancient coins I have, non roman? No worries if not! I understand people have their own stuff going on so if not I totally understand

I have around 25 constantinian era coins in my collection and am looking for some help. I currently don't have eric or aorta and all the online resources I've gone through haven’t helped much. I’ve (maybe) attributed about two coins in this part of my collection. If you’re interested in helping let me know in the comments, if you're not interested, or you just wanna make some rant about my post being stupid wrong etc. move along this thread is not for you. I was told in this lot id be receiving a mixed bag of coins ranging from 80 BC - 1453 AD and were picked at random with each order. Clearly that seller lied as they are all easily recognizable as constantinian with my very limited ancient numismatic knowledge. Any tips, help offered, ideas etc. would be super appreciated more than you could ever know! Edit: if someone out there is willling to help with THIS MANY coins, we'd probably be better off communicating via email or something, Like I said, lmk in the comments!
