<p>[QUOTE="iamtiberius, post: 1936090, member: 37707"]I've only matched my coins up with similar dies to determine mint. There are several ways. Including bust type, legend on reverse, chair style, and monograms. On the middle tet I posted, I was told that the Eagle's head monogram signifies it is from Babylon (Although I don't know what would limit an engraver at a different mint from using the Eagle as a monogram); that could be wrong as I haven't matched it up w/ a similar die, yet.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
