Title: Provincial city?
Post by: Juhana K on September 28, 2021, 09:24:12 am

Hi,

A coin of Julia Mamaea. Would be nice to hear from which provincial city it is? Is it Dionysopolis? Did Dionysopolis has its own mint?

The obverse: IOYΛIA MAMAIA
The reverse: DIO??? (last letter greek omega).

Regards,
Juke

Hi Juke,

The reverse looks like a match to this coin:

Thanks, that's excellent! As a new small collector I have a few simple questions.
