Some of these coins are quite tricky to ID ::) Title: Re: A couple to id please if poss Post by: probono on May 10, 2013, 09:46:02 PM If it's any help the top one is Justin II and Sophia, marked year 7 (but for some reason actually year 9) of their reign, struck in Antioch, in the 3rd mint workshop Dated 573/4AD, Byzantine Coins and Their Values No. 379.
I'll get around to iding the others later.... Title: Re: A couple to id please if poss Post by: wayno on May 11, 2013, 08:44:46 AM Cheers mate great help
