It still amazes me that these coins have survived for 2 millennia. Diocletian is interesting in the fact he was the emperor who beheaded St. George for not renouncing his Christianity.St George would become the patron saint of England and the St. George and the dragon is still on English coins.The Constantine is awesome, it speaks for itself. Nice set of ancients. Happy Halloween 🎃
Now you need to get a CONSTANTINOPOLIS coin from Constantine, to make the perfect combo with the VRBS ROMA. How cool is that, two coins commemorating the two great capitals of the Roman Empire! :)
I buy uncleaned coins (and then clean them), and one of the coins in my very first batch was a 330 AD VRBS ROMA coin. Then, a few months after I got that I watched a video where someone was demonstrating coin cleaning techniques, and the coin he uncovered was also an VRBS ROMA coin. Now I see one in your collection. All of them basically the same, although the coin in my collection is not in nearly as good of a condition as yours. They must have struck a *bazillion* of that particular design.
The best advice I can give is to check large auction houses like Heritage and eBay for recent sales. Market value is difficult to determine on some coins as they do not come up for auction often. Thank you for your comment and best of luck.
I bought these coins over a long period of time from different dealers. Please check vcoins.com and forumancientcoins.com Vcoins have a large number of dealers much like an eBay for ancient coins. I feel sure you can find what you are looking for there. Thank you for your comment and for watching! 👍
@@Ontario100 1 last tip i bought my coins from a shop called “ma shops” . If you havent heard of it then nevermind but if you have then tell me if it is a legit site, thank for you everything anyway

Here is a link to list of online shops recommended by CoinTalk : www.cointalk.com/threads/master-list-of-online-coin-dealers-dealers-with-great-websites.248281/ I see that MA Shops is on the list. That might be a good sign. Best of luck to you !
