I am glad there are more Byzantine collectors! It really does rub on you as you start expanding. Here is mine that I bought a while ago. Funny...
All of those coins are great! That Arsaces II drachm and the Mithradates II drachm are tough to beat...
Thanks @Parthicus. I knew it wasn't a dog, but didn't know it was a Zebu. BTW, that is an outstanding coin! I added a few others to the mix...
@Sulla80 and @akeady Outstanding sleuthing! I didn't even notice the horse's leg on the reverse. Definitely, a historically significant coin!...
@Parthicus: Thanks for the attribution. I don't have Gyselen, hence the incomplete attribution. I am still waiting for Unicode to encode Book...

Congrats! That Caracalla has such a lovely reverse design! Me like it, a lot...

The one I lost sold for about 400EUR at an auction a few months ago, but there was nothing I could do about it, unfortunately. It was gone for so...
