Why? Because we think there's a good chance you're going to love this hobby.

Ancient coin collecting can look intimidating from the outside. There are unfamiliar rulers, Latin and Greek legends, mint marks, denominations, grades, and more than two thousand years of history to explore. You do not need to learn all of it before buying your first coin. We want to make that first step easier.


How the Free Ancient Coin Offer Works

  1. Purchase any ancient coin from Kinzer Coins while the promotion is available.
  2. We'll select a genuine Late Roman bronze and include it with your order at no additional cost.
  3. The ruler, mint, reverse type, size, grade, and condition will vary.
  4. The offer is subject to availability and available quantities.

The complimentary coin is selected by Kinzer Coins. It is intended as an additional piece of ancient history to explore, not as a specific guaranteed ruler or type.


What Is a Late Roman Bronze?

Late Roman bronze, often shortened to LRB by collectors, is a broad modern term for bronze and copper-alloy coinage of the later Roman Empire, especially from the late third through fifth centuries AD. Many of the small fourth- and fifth-century coins collectors call AE3 or AE4 fall into this category. AE3 and AE4 are modern size classifications, not denomination names used by the Romans.

These coins were produced in enormous numbers for everyday use across the Roman world. That survival rate is one reason authentic examples can still be affordable enough to make an excellent entry point for new collectors.


What Kind of Coin Might You Receive?

Your free coin could come from the reign of Constantine I, Constantius II, Valentinian I, Valens, Theodosius I, or another emperor or imperial figure of the later Roman world. Depending on the issue, reverses can show soldiers, victories, military standards, camp gates, personifications, imperial vows, and religious imagery.

Some fourth-century Roman coins also carry early Christian imagery. Under Constantine, Christian symbols first appeared cautiously on imperial coinage before becoming more explicit; a famous bronze nummus of AD 327 shows the Christogram-topped labarum as a central part of the reverse design. These details make even inexpensive Late Roman bronzes useful little documents of a changing empire.

Most coins in this general collecting category are roughly 1,500 to 1,700 years old. They were not made as souvenirs. They were money: struck, carried, exchanged, lost, saved, and sometimes buried by people living in the Roman Empire.

Why Are We Giving Away a Real Ancient Coin?

Because taking a chance on a new hobby can be difficult. Maybe ancient coins have caught your attention, but you are not sure where to begin. Maybe you have looked at a coin several times and thought, "that's really cool, but maybe later."

We hope one extra piece of history turns a few of those maybes into yeses.

There is something different about holding history instead of simply reading about it. A small bronze coin can connect you physically to a world that existed more than fifteen centuries ago without requiring a high-end purchase.
