<p>[QUOTE="Terence Cheesman, post: 7959797, member: 86498"]In response to [USER=110226]@robinjojo[/USER]. It depends on the mint. It would seem that the lack of a footstool emerged in the Levant. The variety appears to have spread to Amphipolis.The tetradrachms of Amphipolis do not have a footstool but do employ a strong exergual line which is absent in the Levant. This is kept up until after the death of Alexander. Some mints like Tarsos appear to have a footstool from the very beginning. Judging from the coins shown above Tyre initially does not, however at some point Zeus gets a footstool.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
