[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 2889496, member: 10461"]Very nice, [USER=82194]@dadams[/USER]! [I]Coin[/I]grats! I've had two Alexander tets, both posthumous (and a drachm, of which no pictures survive). I bought one of those shield/helmet bronzes like yours, with very similar patina, but it was stolen from the dealer before he had a chance to ship it to me, so I never saw it (though I of course got a refund). (This first one now lives with [USER=81808]@Aethelred[/USER]) [IMG]https://www.cointalk.com/attachments/bigal-png.634748/[/IMG] (This other, lower grade one was the first Greek silver I ever owned, back in the 1990s.)
