Late Roman AE3 “FEL TEMP REPARATIO” (fallen horseman) — obverse “CONSTA…” visibl

2 posts • viewed 36 times

Hi everyone,

I’d appreciate any help confirming the attribution of this Late Roman bronze coin.
 

I think it’s bronze copper-alloy AE3

It’s non-magnetic.

Diameter: 21.08 mm, thickness : 1.88 mm, weight: 3.06 g

 

Obverse:

Diademed (crown/diadem) bust right, draped/cuirassed.

Obverse legend is worn but magnified photos show “CONSTA? My best guess for the full legend is DN CONSTANTIVS PF AVG. Is it Constantius II (Constans as an alternate possibility)?

 

Reverse:

Soldier spearing fallen horseman (horseman reverse).

Reverse legend fragments are visible in magnified photos, especially “TEMP/TMP”, consistent with FEL TEMP REPARATIO. I’m not sure. I also see what look like two X marks on the reverse field

 

1. Please help confirm emperor. 

2. Help read the exergue mintmark.

3. If possible, narrow to the correct mint/officina and RIC number.

 

Lastly, if you notice any mistakes or missing details in my attribution, please let me know how I can improve it.


Thank you for your time.

Carin il me semble :
