Another ancient coin that was in my last order. Illyria, Dyrrhachium AR Drachm O: ΜΕΝΣΚΟΣ Cow and calf R: ΔΥΡ ΛΥ ΚΙΣ ΚΟΥ around double stellate pattern Strangely enough, although its the only silver piece its my least favorite coin in the batch.
I like these coins, but even though I own one, I know that they are widely faked. I would have no idea on authenticity. Your coin looks fine to me, but, as I indicated, I am certainly no expert. Here is my representative: ILLYRIA AR Drachm OBVERSE: MENISKOS, cow & calf, Nike flying above with wreath, thunderbolt in ex REVERSE: DYR KAL LW NOS around double stellate pattern Dyrrachium 70-60 BC 3.22g, 17mm Ceka 322
Holy cow, fellas => nice coins!! I have a slightly off-center example, plus I have a pretty cool brockage error ... "enjoy"
