If anyone is looking to get their coins graded then let me know, i can possibly help out as NGC are doing on-site grading at their Munich office and it's only an ubahn ride for me. They start grading next week 18th Feb and finish on the 26th Feb when i will go and pick up my submission that day, i think are doing this every 2-3 months, so if i can help anyone out then just let me know. Of course its also a matter of trust, but i've been on here long enough for most regulars to know me, i've also met and spoke with Rob if you need some sort of confirmation. The offer is there...

It does read Maximinus, not Maximianus and I think this is therefore Maximinus II Daia, as Augustus 310 to 313 AD, not Maximian who was 286 to 310 AD with gaps. Reverse is Iovi Conservatori Augg NN. The excellent Roman Base Metal coins from the banner advert has it as CRB430 on page 58. Siscia mint - which is modern day Split in Croatia. Nice coin and well worth your £8. If you are going to collect the odd Roman coin cheaply then the two Rotographic books (one for Silver, one for Base metals) are a great starting place.

This is the first ever Roman coin I've bought in twenty five years of collecting coins and tokens and I know nothing about the subject but felt I should have at least one in my collection after this length of time. I've not pushed the boat out far spending only £8 and would like to know if it's 1) genuine 2) from what period it's from. The diameter is 22mm with a weight of 3.1gm. Many thanks guys

I would personally ensure that they will be treated with due care Stewie, what size of drill bit would you like? 😁
