Coin 3B:
Constantivs II (337 - 361 AD)
Obv: [D] N [CONSTAN] - [T] IVSP [FAVG] (can only read what is not in the brackets, but it was enough for an attribution!!!) - Pearl diadem, draped and
cuirassed bust right
Rev:
FEL TEMP REPARATIO (with no dots between the words) -
Phoenix, right on a globe with nothing in left, right or center fields.
Struck at Trier between 348 and 350 with three characters and a dot in extergue (could be TRPdot or TRSdot, both

Centenionalis.
This was an interesting coin to attribute. I was able to get a solid attribution even with the very
poor condition of this coin. The keys, after the main Fel Temp - Pheonix on a globe, were the pearl diadem, the letters N & IVSP in the
obverse legend, nothing in any of the fields and a three character
exergue with a pellet at the end.
Coin 4B:
Julian II (361 - 363 AD)
Obv: [D N IVLIAN] VS
NOB [C] (can only read what is not in the brackets, but it was enough for an attribution!!!) - Bare-headed, draped and
cuirassed bust right.

FEL TEMP REPARATIO - Soldier in
Military Dress spearing a fallen horseman. An L in the left
field.
Struck at
Siscia between 355 and 360 with
DSIS in the

This was another interesting coin to attribute. I was able to get a solid attribution even with the very
poor condition of this coin, too. The keys, after the main Fel Temp fallen horseman were: the
bare head bust, the letters in the
obverse legend VSNOB, a very pitted "L" in the left
field and the lettering in the
exergue.
