[QUOTE="TIF, post: 2252960, member: 56859"]You just couldn't make up your mind, could you? :D They're all worthy in their own way. The older version of the stater is quite nice-- especially since you can see the serpent's head-- and I think those are less common that the one I and many others have. I'd like to get one or two of the other denominations and styles. In particular, an AR fractional with flying dove on both sides is on The List, along with a chimera hemidrachm or drachm.
