<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gsimonel, post: 3067163, member: 82549&quot;]The lettering on the reverse of this tiny bronze (15mm, 4.5g), which I admit is difficult to see in the photo, appears to read BAΣIΛE . . .on top and ANTIO on the bottom. The notes in the listing for this lot includes &quot;Seleukid Kings, Antiochos IV, AE 14mm.&quot; (<a href="https://www.cngcoins.com/Coin.aspx?CoinID=357479" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.cngcoins.com/Coin.aspx?CoinID=357479" rel="nofollow">https://www.cngcoins.com/Coin.aspx?CoinID=357479</a>) These coins came loose, without any holders, so I don&#039;t know for sure which coin they were describing, but Antiochos IV seems like a good place to start with this one.</p><p><br /></p><p>My questions are about the devices. Is the obverse image supposed to be Serapis, or do you see something else? The reverse image reminds me of an elephant&#039;s head, but I&#039;m guessing it&#039;s supposed to be something else, too. Any ideas?</p><p>[ATTACH=full]770155[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for your thoughts![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
