    Yesterday robinjojo posted a thread with ancient coins he recently acquired & one coin jumped out at me, a handsome Tet of Septimius Severus from Laodicea ad Mare, Syria. I posted a coin of the same type from my collection that I've had a long time that appears to be struck from the same dies :jawdrop:! I was hoping to get some feedback from CT members if this was the case or just an illusion on my part :confused:. My post was near the end of the thread & I believe it was missed by most CT members :(. Please look at the 2 coins & give me your opinions :).

    robinjojo Tet, 15.42 gm.
    D-Camera Septimius Severus, tet, Laodicea ad Mare, 209-11 AD Seleucis & Pieria, 15.42g  12-25-20.jpg Septimius Severur, Prieur 1140, AD 207-208.jpg
