Unknown Byzantine Id help
« on: January 14, 2008, 10:07:30 pm »
This coin is 28mm at it's widest and 6.5grams.
Obverse I would assume is some representatio of Christ or Virgin, and the
reverse is the emperor depicted.
Any help appreciated.

Looks to me like Constantine X (1059-1067). If you have access to Sear's Byzantine Coins and their values, your coin is number 1854 (Bust of Christ facing/bust facing bearded wearing crown and loros, and holding cross and akakia).
