Great OP coin with an interesting portrait style. Here is another RIC 572 where she looks a lot happier than in stevex6's. I think the legend on...
Perhaps a chalkous of Antiochos III? I think they made millions of these little coins and they are fairly common in uncleaned or mixed lots.
Love all these Severan posts. Here is a provincial Caracalla from Antioch (Pisidia) (seller's pics again). I know its normally verboten to clean...
Here is a nice one I got from Ken Dorney (thanks!) - the flan is a bit ragged around the edges but a really nice portrait and Mars is on the...
Thanks for the info JA and nice coin swish513! That is one small coin - amazing they can fit the date and mint on such a tiny flan.
I think I'm breaking the rules here by not posting a coin but I don't have any of this type and am looking for information from members who might...
I also picked this up today in the CNG auction and I can say it's complete bull. Or rather three bulls! I like Greek fractions and this one...
Here is another centaur (Chiron according to seller) playing a tune. I don't have this one yet as I got it in the last Naumann auction - seller's...
Great coins everyone - I really like the unusual reverse style in yours chrsmat71. Don't limit your coins to poor old Valerian - any Roman...
I have to agree Salient it seems a bit of a stretch to me as well but it is a theory that makes for interesting reading and there are a lot of...
This is another coin from the Seleucid lot that I thought was unusual. Rather than me try to explain I will include a link to a great summary of...
This is a coin that was included in a lot of mostly Seleucid coins I purchased. The Seleucid's were really what I was after and I didn't...
I did see the Julia Domna but like you I will hold out for one a bit better - I have a lot of other tet areas to explore so that might be a while....
I snagged a couple from Naville today as well - they always seem to have interesting Alexandrian material. I have a soft spot for the Severans in...
Here is a provincial Geta from Antioch in Pisidia. I am relying on the seller's attribution for this one as I don't have any Roman provincial...
Here is one of Phillip I - obverse is a bit rough but I really liked the Helios reverse on this one. Philip I tetradrachm 13 g 22 mm Regnal year...
Thanks everyone - Doug is correct I did purchase this from ACR which is the reference Bing cited. Unfortunately I sometimes purchase coins based...
Hi everyone, I recently bought a coin carrying case with trays to reorganize my coins and this led me to reviewing the attribution of coins...
These are camera pics and the surface is quite glossy so they don't come out as clear as the coin is in hand. Antiochos VI 144-142 BC Radiate and...
I actually have a Philip II tetradrachm! At least I think it is - Prieur 474 according to the seller but I haven't researched it yet. [ATTACH]...
