    Huh? ...

    Doug, seriously? => hey, I must admit that I love these coins for "what they're worth", but I also buy these coins wondering what you dudes are gonna think of them (sure, I realize that's my problem, not yours) ...

    => ummm, but I'm very surprised that you didn't chime-in on this coin ...


    Roman, Cool Reverse ... hmmm?? (no problemo ... but just merely wonderin'?)


    :cool:

    I don't have any Serapis tetradrachms yet but here are two of my better ones. Can't remember if I posted them already.

    Vespasian AD 69/70 Alexandria with elephant headdress Reverse

    [​IMG][​IMG]

    Nero AD 66/67 Roma Reverse with the eyes punched out on both sides
    [​IMG][​IMG]

    Here's hoping that on the 18th I have a brand new one to show ya once the auction ends.

    Also Bing I really like that Titus tetradrachm. That is a someday coin for me!
