Julian II fel temp
« on: June 14, 2009, 05:55:48 pm »
I tend to build up a pile of coins to attribute after cleaning and this one has been driving me mad for a little while. I just can't find another example anywhere with an  :Greek_epsilon:in the left field. Anyway I was wondering if that actually makes any difference in attributing it or is it just a control mark.

I found on of Constantius Gallus with the epsilon in the left field but the obverse legend on mine is starts

"D.N.C.L."   and I can make out  "IVLI"   and then  "NOB.CAES"


So I don't think it's him. Anyway thanks for your help in advance and apologies for the poor photos.

I almost forgot to mention it is definitely from Thessalonika as I can read the SMTS in the ex.

sorry I didn't read thru your whole post-I'd say it's the officina -epsilon and it is Julian II for sure.

With bare head it can be only Constantius Gallus and Julian as Caesar.

Best regards
