Latin trachy?
« on: August 11, 2017, 04:02:04 pm »
Hi all,

Is this a Latin trachy? The reverse shows an emperor standing pretty clearly, but on the obverse there appears to be another emperor, partly overstruck by the image of Christ. Any ideas?

Thanks!

I do not know but I was able to clean a photo for more detail.
