Description: VF. Limes denarii were struck by official mints in bronze or billon generally on the northern frontier where silver was scarce. Many times they are mules with mismatched obverse and reverse dies. They were still valuated as a denarius. Many times the weak strikes are attributed to the use of old dies sent to the frontier to be used once they were too worn for Imperial use. An interesting part of Roman history

Description: toned XF with teal highlights. Ex CNG with tag. From the 1887 Harptree Hoard. During a drought in November of 1887 a worker looking for a water source near East Harptree south west of Bath (England) hit a metal jar of coins with his pick. Among other things the jar contained 1496 silver coins from nine Emperors from Constantine I to Julian II with Julian II being the most abundant followed by Constantius II. The hoard was studied by the British Museum and published by John Evans in the Numismatic Chronicle of 1888 pages 22-46. Most of the coins were returned to the finder and other than a small group stolen when displayed at a local church at the time remained in the family for more than 100 years until many of them entered the numismatic market in September of 2016.
