Magnementius

[David M3]

My first Magnementius. Not in hand yet but got for a good deal not much of a coin but one I could aford. I don't know if it can be identifed by these pictures but, when I get the coin I will post better ones.

Magnentius not Magnementius.

Looks like one of the votive coins but try as hard as I can I still only see one victory when there is usually two holding the inscription between them.

Is this double struck or over struck by any chance?

[rick2]

it looks like an imitative to me

but its difficult to say from the pic

the two letter exergue is strange

The 2 letter exergue could be Rome or Trier. Maybe some others?

[David M3]

From just the photo I do not have coin in had I would say Tier TRP in ex or whats left of it.

[Robert_Brenchley]

It looks like T _ P, so TRP.

Are Magnentius coins rare and expensive?
It turns out that exactly the coin of Magnentius was in the lot of the uncleaned and unattributed Roman coins that I have acquired recently. And my Magnentius coin was put for the attribution here some hours ago!

They're not commonly found in uncleaned lots in good condition and are worth more than a Constantine in the same condition but not really rare or expensive. Here's one that no one wants to buy for $7.

Because it's rotten.

This one cost me 9us dollars. So I did not break the bank.

[daverino]

This one cost me not much more than that. It is the larger centenionalis size (22 mm) minted in Arles. It has a glossy black patina with hints of yellow and orange depending on how the light strikes it. You can find good deals if you are patient.

[David M3]

Nice coin. I wouldn't mind having that one myself.

[SRukke]

I probably paid too much at $32 but I wanted the horseback reverse which is a bit more scarce.

[David M3]

Another nice example like you I don't always pay what the coin is worth, I tend to go crazy when I really want a coin. My brain freezes and My finger keeps hiting the bid know button.
