<p>[QUOTE=&quot;robinjojo, post: 8110907, member: 110226&quot;]This Caracalla tetradrachm arrived today.&nbsp; I purchased the coin as a tetradrachm from Antioch, but I think it is actually from Cyprus. The obverse portrays him in his usual sunny demeanor.&nbsp; The reverse appears to have a grain ear below the eagle, but I am not sure.</p><p><br /></p><p>What do you think?</p><p><br /></p><p>Roman Provincial, 215-17 AD</p><p>Caracalla</p><p>BI tetradrachm</p><p>Cyprus?</p><p>Obverse: Laureate head facing right.</p><p>Reverse: Facing eagle, head right, grain ear below.</p><p>Well centered strike, cleaned.</p><p>About VF</p><p><br /></p><p>16.49 grams</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1411277[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Are there comparable examples out there?</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
