Re: medieval coin help, if you please.
It looks Greek, but that's as far as I can go. Now I need to check the books.

Re: medieval coin help, if you please.
Daniel may be right on this one. From experience I know that there is typically more roman coins that turn up than greek though. On a separate note on thing to watch out for on these is fakes. Believe it or not people can make some pretty darn good fakes of these.
They are extremely fun to date and identify though. If I could find a post I made years ago I think there was some good research links to id your coin.
