    Thanks Steve. I don't have it in hand yet but it's a reduced uncia, probably around 20mm, and I would guess 7-8 grams. Minted 211-208 BC.

    Hopefully not stepping on Jack's toes, I'll say that I get to enjoy this coin for one more day before I send it packing. I think these Bruttium types have one of the most impressive warriors found on ancient coins.

    Also, my compliments on the OP coin, @TIF! What a fantastic, whimsical type. Will a day ever come when I can say I've seen every type of ancient coin? I doubt it, and I hope not!

    Thanks, John! :)

    That's a fantastic Zeus/Warrior AE drachm, JA! Did I overlook this in one of your CoinClub sales, or was it a private deal?
