<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lrbguy, post: 3608499, member: 88829&quot;]I certainly cannot speak to the authenticity of your coin, but the imagery of both sides and the size of the piece put it in range for the early Jewish silver coins of the Persian and Ptolemaic periods.&nbsp; The reverse with a date palm I do not associate with that early period, which gives me pause.&nbsp; The use of the figure of Nike behind the crowned head of the King is not Persian, but that style of head (sans Nike) does appear on the early Jewish silver coins of this size.&nbsp; Too many composite elements here for me to see it as authentic, but keep looking.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
