Well, in keeping with the 'Pergamon' theme, I do have this 'budget' Ae-20 to offer----Tiberius and Livia with the Tetrastyle temple reverse:

Ae-20mm of Pergamon in Mysia, 29-35 AD., Pergamon mint in Mysia. Av. the bust of Livia right, facing to the head of Tiberius left Rv. statue of Divus Augustus in tetrastyle temple with a green patina, weight is 4,13gr. RPC 2369.

 

Nice coin ro. I've got this small one from Pergamon struck under Philetairos.

 

Not sure what ancient city in Turkey this coin was minted some say Ephesus.
AE 26mm, 11.1gm, RIC 486.

 

I still like it

 

Stop worrying how many likes your coins get. It's the reason I no longer give you likes. Dude, buy the coins for yourself. Who cares what others think.

I'll be happy to give you plenty of likes when I see you posting passionately about your coins instead of complaining about how many likes you got.

 

i buy to have to many coins buy wih problems that have me makes uncertain


example in Forvm coin was men not happy about this coins
i think then this coin is then not good

 

Almost all ancient coins have one problem or another. You learn to live with most of them after a while (ie. wear, patina issues, flan cracks, porosity, crystalization, off centering, etc), and those problems that you can't deal with, you learn to avoid (ie. tooling, fake patina, etc).

 

nice to hear coin is real

 

A tiny 9 mm AE beauty from Pergamum.
c. 310-284 BC. Head of young Heracles rt./helmeted Athena right. ΠEP below. Sear Greek 3958. SNG Danish 323 (This one is better).

 

You say that good i see only tooling lol

 

Love the OP, you are lucky I didn't see it first RO.

 

A example i buy this one in begin and i like it i did t see there in my eyes any problems
i pay a lot and later i see now mabye the coin is not good, because bad reactions and they say not what is good gets frustrations
