Hi Group Just as a tribute to my on going interest for Septimius Severus : A bold portrait with a Nike countermark ( first time to get one like this ) Another one with a Temple in a 3D View : I will add other pics later and put also some statistics regarding my new interest in US Coins :smile Cheers Philippe
Very nice coin, never seen that type before with the reverse. I mainly collect the silvers when it comes to ancients. You'd get more replies if you posted this in the world/ancient forum
i have 3 ancient coins. i have one from 343 bc. its my most favorite coin in my whole collection. i think i like it mainly because you never know who had the coin. just the mystery is is the best part about it.
well i dont know anything about that coin but it is neat. though in my perspective it in a little rough condition.. but i have no idea if thats how good they get. i have never herd of it. what year is it?
Hi You are right, this coin is not in very good shape..but it is old Actually it is quite scarce and a nice one would hit maybe 4 digits It is particularly sought after by ancients collector due to the perspective depiction of the temple of Helios in Beyrouth It dates back from the reign of Septimius Severus, i.e. between 193 and 211 AD Cheers Phil
