Probably dupondius
« on: June 13, 2016, 01:46:08 pm »
Who can help me to identify this coin a little further. Every info is very welcome. What could the text be in ex? I think it's a dupndius because the head looks radiate.

Thanks

Maybe the DACIA AVGVST PROVINCIAE S C?

Looks like part of the PROVINCIAE under the throne.

My humble opinion: RDIA, there you can see the remains of Concordia enthroned left, holding patera, arm on statue of Spes, cornucopiae below. It is also referred at acsearch.info as RIC 556.

Concordia is definitely a much more common type.  I see what you mean though it requires the letter I to be leaning quite a bit to the left.

One more letter either way would reveal it for sure.
