Description: Byzantine Empire small bronze "trachy" denomination 18mm are characterized by scyphate (cup shape), and were issued by several Latin Emperors in Constantinople between 1204-1261 AD. Images of Christ and the Emperor is only partially struck, as is always the case. Concave side is always better, this shows some detail on the convex side which is better than usual. Irregular planchet is not broken, just made this way. Very evocative looking and with some research online you can make a more specific attribution (they give me too much of a headache to attribute but your eyes are probably better). I have been a collector of worldwide and ancient coins for over 50 years, it is time to start parting with some of it. I attended major Northeast shows for decades and purchased from leading professionals. Most of my coins I have owned 20-40 years.
