Hi All,

I picked up a small collection of ancients and this coin was in it.  I have never paid much attention to Byzantine coins, but I find them interesting now that I have a few in my own collection.  I am not sure how to go about identifying them.  If any one can give me a hand I would appreciate it.  If there is any resource books that are available, I would also appreciate the title(s).

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Doug
