<p>[QUOTE=&quot;The Meat man, post: 8208470, member: 135271&quot;]Here is a coin I bought a little while back. It&#039;s my oldest, and also happens to be my wife&#039;s favorite.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/6gRnfEQ.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Now the seller from whom I purchased it said that it was from the time of Darius I to Xerxes I (505 to 480 BC.) I tried to do a little research on my own, and according to CoinProject it appears to be a Carradice Type III, which they list as being used from Darius all the way to Artaxerxes III.</p><p><br /></p><p>Is there any way to know more about exactly when this coin was made? Is there a way to tell an early type III from a later? I know this coin is pretty worn so that might make it more difficult. I believe the seller is trustworthy, but I am curious to know how they were able to narrow it down like that.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks all![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
