[QUOTE="hotwheelsearl, post: 7370792, member: 75143"]I have spent an inordinate amount of time trying to nail down an attribution for these two Asklepios coins. Caracalla AE16 Assarion Obv: ---ANTONINOC. Laureate head right. Rev: --POLEITON. Asklepios standing left, holding serpent-entwined staff. Diam: 16mm Wt: 2.5g [ATTACH=full]1284140[/ATTACH] My best guess is Hadrionopolis, Thrace, but I all the examples I find are of much larger 26mm+ sizes. Septimius Severus AE18 Diassarion Obv: unclear. Bare(?) head right. Rev: --AKTP--??. Asklepios standing facing left, holding serpent-entwined staff. B in right field, potentially diassarion denomination. Diam: 18mm Wt: 4.3g [ATTACH=full]1284139[/ATTACH] My best guess is Acrasus, Lydia, but I couldn't find any examples with the right field mark like that. SOS pls[/QUOTE]
