Hi, does anyone out there know what the typical composition of this particular sort of Cu alloy Byzantine coinage ought to be, or know of any published data for comparison: Folles of Constans II, dated 650-668 AD. I've got a group from three different mints (Syria,Constantinople, and Thessolonike). It's just this specific type of coin that I'm looking for comparative data on, and would appreciate any references!
Cheers
Evelyne
