    As a tip: Tyche has a hat that often looks like a turret from a castle. Dikaiosyne is bare headed. Notice Steve's OP coin showed three turrets making the 'Hat Trick' joke triply appropriate. Many have a single tower hat as seen in the Philip II below. On the obverse, Serapis wears one, too. gi2410b01870alg.jpg

    => Hey, I openly admit that I don't spend nearly enough time pouring-over my new coins and trying to learn as much as possible about each of these lil gems (sadly, I'm still on life's treadmill, trying to juggle all of my priorities: work, wife, life, and coins) ... I'm hoping in four or so years from now, the "work" part drops-off and leaves a bit more room for the other activities!! (please stay tuned!!)

    Aside => Doug, I have merely inherited the "liner-notes" for these three coins ... again, I am merely goin' with the seller's info (all three coins stated that Tyche was on the obverse) ... but for the record, in a fight, I'd back-up your opinion every time!!
