unofficial Tetricus...best ever?
« on: November 28, 2024, 12:01:29 PM »
Happy Thanksgiving y'all!

I just bought this delightful unofficial coin. It looks like a trial strike of a medallion but it is merely a small module (10 mm die) struck on a larger flan.

 


Tetricus I
Circa A.D. 270- 274
Ӕ minimi
13x14mm 1.5g

The reverse may be a vase
