Nerosmyfavorite68 Posted June 1 · Member Share Posted June 1 (edited) The picture didn't come out the best, but it was the best I could muster. I'm no good with ID'ing coins of Constans II from the capital. Is this Sear 1000? It's from a Byzantine group of coins, emanating from the local coin shop.

Nerosmyfavorite68 Posted June 1 · Member Author Share Posted June 1 (edited) Do you think I attributed this one correctly, to Nicephorus II? The flip said maybe Romanus I. The flip for the Heraclius S-805 originally said 5th-15th century, lol. S805, Year 3 (?) officina, overstruck on a Focas of Nikomedia. When I make my next order from a certain dealer, I'll ask for a coin capsule. I'll then be able to have a better photography riser. Dad didn't do too badly. They've been offering inexpensive coins of late, and for the price, they're not too bad.

The Sear classification is a bit dated for these, so I would use Goodwin's resource instead. See: https://www.academia.edu/24105129/The_Early_Folles_of_Constans_II but, to answer your question, I would incline towards 1005 as opposed to 1000.
