[QUOTE="TIF, post: 2569432, member: 56859"]At a quick glance, the third one's obverse looks like a typical Seleukid king to me. If no one else has pegged it later today I'll take a closer look. The first one, as 7C said, is Astarte-Europa, like this one-- a coin I bought near the beginning of my ancient collecting and I still love it :) [IMG]https://www.cointalk.com/proxy.php?image=https%3A%2F%2Fstatic.wixstatic.com%2Fmedia%2Fae43f8_4d8ffd4c7692454fbdaae532a808a53a.jpg%2Fv1%2Ffill%2Fw_850%2Ch_434%2Cal_c%2Cq_90%2Fae43f8_4d8ffd4c7692454fbdaae532a808a53a.jpg&hash=9180c34a6417f944efff0f77ba342613[/IMG] [B]PHOENICIA, Arados[/B] Trajan.
