Wow, Ed. What a fantastic portrait!
A very experienced coin, OmNom :) I didn't understand this part. Can you clarify? I have a Histiaia tetrolbol purchased for the very charming...
I agree with Sev about the Messana litras but it depends on the age of the children. They are tiny and fragile so it might not be suitable for...
Sorry I missed this thread when you first posted it, @Roman Collector. Great research!! Thanks for the detailed information. :)
Oh wait... I misread the original post. The coin with red background is the tetradrachm?! I thought that was your new coin. Hmm. I would have...

It's gorgeous!! What a fantastic strike and unusually good artistry. (edited: I misread the OP and thought the top coin was the keeper). Both...
