<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kevin McGonigal, post: 2474263, member: 72790&quot;]Yes, I too was struck by the coin&#039;s inscription of Rome with the use of the &quot;eta&quot; rather than the &quot;alpha&quot;. I know that in modern Greek, at least the demotiki version, the letter &quot;eta&quot; has lost its &quot;ay&quot; (as in day) sound and sounds similar to epsilon (a short e sound). In any event I did not even ask what the price was. Though I have been collecting Ancients for decades and was intrigued by the appearance and the oddity I learned a long time ago that oddity does not equal authenticity. Thanks for the assistance.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
