<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kevin McGonigal, post: 4951173, member: 72790&quot;]Yes, that is a Qoppa beneath Pegasus. The weight is 8.6 grams and has a diameter of 22mm. I must admit that I find these Corinthian Colts among my most beautiful coins. I collect Roman because they are interesting but Greek because they are beautiful. (I also collect Byzantine but why I don&#039;t know. I find them to be neither all that interesting and not very attractive at all). I am going to post a Corinthian Colony of Thourion, if I can find it. Even though it is a fouree, a plated coin, it, too, is a beautiful coin. Notice the fine detail. Perhaps it actually was from the official mint at Thourion during a time of fiscal austerity.[ATTACH=full]1190078[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1190079[/ATTACH]&nbsp; Impressive at how sharp the is the face. If this was a forgery, the Thourion mint should have hired him as a celator. It is lighter at 6.39 grams and 21 mm. Notice the theta below her chin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
