[QUOTE="stainless, post: 667731, member: 11757"]Thanks :) MACEDON, Neapolis. Circa 424-350 BC. AR Hemidrachm Size/Weight: 14mm, 1.79g, holed Obverse:Facing gorgoneion with protruding tongue Reverse: Head of nymph right, wearing necklace; N-E-O-Π around; all within circular incuse Attribution:SNG ANS 430-54 I simply love gorgons, and when I saw this portrait, I had to have it. In my opinion, it is one of the best I have seen (the portrait that is). Unfortunatly, the coin has an obvious giant hole, but it adds historic value to it....plus, it costs less with a hole, which my budget liked :cool:.
