<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jwt708, post: 3878025, member: 32619&quot;]I have two coins from Arados:</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://www.cointalk.com/media/jwt-181-arados-tyche.7639/full" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p>PHOENICIA, Arados.</p><p>AR Tetradrachm, 30mm, 15g, 12h; Dated CY 160 (100/99 BC).</p><p>Obv.: Turreted, veiled and draped bust of Tyche right.</p><p>Rev.: APAΔIΩN; Nike standing left, holding <b>aplustre</b> and palm; ΞP (date), Phoenician letter and ΘC in left field; all within wreath.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for brining up the aplustre in your original post. I purchased the above coin because I thought Tyche was beautifully rendered and didn&#039;t give much thought to the reverse. Sometimes I get too caught up in what appeals to me in a coin and neglect to research it in any depth. So, thank you for this thread!</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://www.cointalk.com/media/jwt-163-arados-prow.5379/full" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p>PHOENICIA, Arados</p><p>Æ17, 5.8g, 6h; 3rd-2nd Centuries BC</p><p>Obv.: Turreted head of Tyche right.</p><p>Rev.: Prow left, with figurehead of Athena Promachos, date below.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
