[QUOTE="Napata, post: 2283338, member: 76197"]Not really certain. It is the hard cover of a notebook I received from a work colleague. It looks like snake skin, but it could be fake (?). Yeah, I choose the hard cover as background; it looked nice. BTW, I see you got #58 banker's mark. You can see the list [URL='http://www.forumancientcoins.com/numiswiki/view.asp?key=siglos']here[/URL]. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/mZwc68X.jpg[/IMG] Sadly, very few of them have a clear attribution. For instance, #62, #100 and #112 are thought to be of Greek origin (Aegina). INDEED! The countermarks are what that make sigloi even more fascinating for a collector.
