Great set of coins! I love the minerals on the cash coin! It's coin collecting and rock collecting all in one package. How did you score the...
It's possible, but there are examples that were struck over the drachms of the last Nabataean king Rabbell II - I have one that I'm going to post...
The Aspendos stater was #1 for me, just for sheer jaw-dropping beauty. Btw, there's a provincial drachm version of those Arabia denarii, struck...

Awesome set of coins! But I on the first one, I think you mean "retrograde" instead of "incuse."
Now THERE'S a coin you don't see every day!
A great, eclectic set of coins. Nice collecting! Do you concentrate wholly on Roman coinage, or do you collect anything else?
