lordmarcovan Posted June 13 · Member Share Posted June 13 I'm presuming this is a silvered antoninianus. Could use some attribution assistance on it, if you don't mind? Is that a Concordia reverse? My apologies not only for the wretched photos, but also for the fact that I am away from my calipers and scale right now, so I can provide no diameter or weight for the time being. The light environmental damage to the surfaces gives it a rather mottled appearance which makes it all the more difficult to photograph, but hey, at least it does have a good bit of silvering left, and it does seem to have reasonably high grade details beneath the roughness. I got it in with a batch of other coins I bought for my giveaways, so that will be its eventual destiny- as a giveaway coin. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordmarcovan Posted June 13 · Member Author Share Posted June 13 Do I correctly read CONCORDIAE MILITVM on the reverse? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to say on the XXI. There is certainly an "I" there, to the right of the exergue, but the area where the "XX" would be is pitted.
