    One of my best Roman coins

    This is one of my best Roman coins. It's a fairly rare double centenionalis of the emperor Magnentius A.D. 350-353. The reverse of the coin shows a large christogram. The flan it was struck on was a little ragged, but over all it's in good shape.

    [/quote Think the mint for this coin should be AMB for Ambianum, it certainly though is not that. Looks more like TRC ?.
