<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Al Kowsky, post: 3985827, member: 97383&quot;]Mike, what a wonderful coin to have in your collection <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />! Not only are father &amp; son together but the coin is blessed with a lovely patina <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie101" alt=":woot:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. Your coin fits the description of <i><b>Group 3: AE 19 (as) - Rev. Bust of Diadumenian</b></i> as described by McAlee in his iconic book. I do not see the bust of Diadumenian on your coin as <b>draped</b>, only cuirassed, whereas the father is draped &amp; cuirassed. The heavy wear on your coin makes this difficult to discern. If my observation is correct your coin would list as <b>#739</b> in McAlee&#039;s book. The coin he illustrates is in much better condition than your coin &amp; weighs 4.0 gm, &amp; is listed as <b>Rare</b>. Hopefully other <b>CT</b> members will chime in &amp; offer an opinion on your coin <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
