    Cool! The portraits are so similar, I'm sure the celator thought "Well, I'll just leave the stubble off one of them and then people will know it's Philip II."

    2 each Philip I and II tetradrachms from Antioch:
    The first Philip I bears the MON VRB mintmark but I am not sure whether it was just the dies or if the coins were also made in Rome. po2347fd3384.jpg

    Philip I left Antioch mintmark - Could someone comment on the presence or absence of the radiate crown in the case of these tets?
