[QUOTE="Mat, post: 4511541, member: 21445"]For a long while, I have been in the market for an Alexandrian Tet of Valerian II, but the cost tends to shy me away. A few months ago our own Ken Dorney listed one on Vcoins & had to do a double-take at the price & at the condition of the coin. I quickly snapped it up. I thought this would be a good time to share it. It's one of the better conditions coins I have gotten in 2020. Plus this is my 15,000 post. And today I have turned 41 years old. So enjoy the coin, I have been. [IMG]https://i.postimg.cc/MTpMbcbn/valiitet.jpg[/IMG] Valerian II, (256 - 258 A.D.) Egypt, Alexandria Billon Tetradrachm O: P LIK KOR OVALERIANOC KAIC CEB, Draped and cuirassed bust of Valerian right. R: Alexandria wearing mural crown standing left holding bust of Serapis and scepter, L E (Year 5) across fields. 10.35g 22mm Emmett 3763 // Milne 3981 Published on wildwinds![/QUOTE]
