hello, i know nothing about ancient coins, but i have to know what is that bottom coin you posted? the one with wcordivs and the back looks like a griffin? i love it. i would like to know any and everything about it, and if it isnt prying too much, how much does that cost? i want one. and if it is silver, i REALLY want it

 

rysherms => that is actually "2" seperate coins:

The first coin is => Mn Cordius Rufus (it is an AR denarius ... the AR means it is made of silver)

The second coin is => Ionia Teos (it is an AR drachm)

 

if it is ok to ask, how much do those 2 coins cost

 

I looked for like coins for sale on Vcoins and this is what I found:

The Mn Cordius Rufus coin sells from around $150 to $300. http://www.vcoins.com/en/Search.asp...ype=0&searchMaxRecords=100&SearchOnSale=False

The Ionia Teos runs $300 upwards: http://www.vcoins.com/en/Search.asp...ype=0&searchMaxRecords=100&SearchOnSale=False

 

Wow Bing, apparently I am a bit more thrifty than you give me credit for:

I paid $125 (delivered) for the Mn Cordius Rufus
I paid $260 (delivered) for the Ionia Teos

:hail::hail:

 

I didn't say I would pay those prices. However, the Rufus coin is well worth what you paid.
