    None of the Macedonian tripod issues are common, so yes, maybe rare, definitely at least scarce.

    Here's another piece of the city Pfilopoya. Also from my collection. It looks the same but Hercules left, such as it is rare. This coin is larger and heavier than the first. Weight about 7 grams…..
    But wheat ears is not visible, and the words are not clear, but it is probably this city.

    I wouldn't sink a modern Roosevelt on it there is no proof to the age of coins such as that it's just a collecters preference, before I get stoned that's just the way I feel to each is own [edited - no political or religious debates].

    Since you admittedly have no idea what you're talking about and you "stay away from so called ancient stuff" why not "stay away from so called ancient forum" too. Your comments basically amount to trolling.

    Just because you do not accept the proof does not mean there is no proof.
