[QUOTE="Herodotus, post: 6569685, member: 111387"]Ooh, that is really nice! Most current attributions have your coin as being minted under Hieron II(275-215 B.C.). I'm not sure how the consensus has changed since SNG ANS(American Numismatic Society) came to their findings. I've been on a real Sicily Æ kick lately. [ATTACH=full]1263897[/ATTACH] [B]SICILY, Syracuse. [I]Agathokles. [/I][/B]317-289 BC. Æ Hemilitron [I]22mm 10.54g[/I] Struck Circa 317-310 B.C. [B]O:[/B] Head of Kore left, wearing wreath of grain and necklace. [B]R:[/B] Bull butting left, dolphins above and below. [I]SNG Copenhagen 757[/I] 2021 is starting to shape up for me too in the coin collecting arena. After my laptop broke last Dec., I waited almost two months for its replacement to show up; only needing to return it after receiving it. I ordered another one that arrived yesterday. That means I can get back to posting more pictures of coins, instead of only long winded text. I'm also finally getting around to setting up my photo station. So, hopefully the pics will improve a little too.[/QUOTE]
