Ancient/Roman/Zinc white spot - Restoration

I have received some coins from very kind members which has given me the pleasure to restore some details on otherwise lost coins.

Enjoy......

BYZANTINE, Justinian I, 527-65 AD, bronze

A big thank you to the members who have selflessly sent these coins for me to work on.....

Most of these are from member Ninebobnote

The Zinc is from member set68.

Some of those are spectacular.

The first one appears to be a Greek coin from Macedonia. My example here is from the interregnum (288-277BCE), but they were produced by many different groups and times. The obverse is a shield (which is completely obliterated on your example), and the reverse is a plumed helmet.

Great stuff Lee
I look forward to your next post,
Thanks Steve for posting the pictures, lovely helmet m8
The bottom coin is giving me a bit of a headache but I am leaning towards a provincial of Caracalla, more searching needed.

The bottom coin reverse is not clear in the images. It looks like some kind of temple with a person stood in the centre.

It looks something like this to me. It appears the temple is called a "Tetra type", use that when searching.
(I slapped this together in 2-3 minutes, its 2:20am so no time to put in any effort. )




Plenty more to come, the tiny coins will be a challenge, looking forward to doing them tomorrow.
