A community for collectors of ancient and medieval coins.

ID requests are welcome, but please post clearly lit images of both sides of the coin as well as a picture of the edges of the coin.

Sales posts are welcome. Inspired by the old ancientcoins subreddit, memes and jokes are only allowed on the last day of the month.

I general, just be nice to each other :)

Direct copy of a Byzantine coin, with select design changes to e.g. the cross. Pretty clever, actually, to take over and pretend everything was the same.

Oh, that’s right. Had to look it up. See the second picture.
