Reverse: A cross within a pearl circle, with a crescent in the second quadrant. Surrounding legend: +ANTIOCHA annulet.
Reference: Metcalf 377–391.

Provenance:
From a private Danish collection, established in the 1980s.

Please review the photos carefully. Keep in mind, the images are highly magnified; the coin appears even more impressive in person.

I recently received my new coin for my collection, and I couldn't be happier! Although it got stuck in UK customs for a bit, they eventually realized it wasn't worth holding on to for long. 👍👍

Supersnel verzonden! Hele aardige bezorger top! En goed ingepakt. Is een heel klein muntje maar ben er heel erg blij mee. Zo aan het einde van het Romeinse Rijk de laatste stuiptrekkingen…….dank……

Thanks a million for your feedback! I’m happy that you like your new authentic and small beauty piece! Yes, the Marcian is the smallest Roman coin in my collection, but still very beautiful and rare:)

Monnaie très appréciée par les collectionneurs qui s'intéressent à cette période qui continue aujourd'hui à nous interroger.
