<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Al Kowsky, post: 4562681, member: 97383&quot;]James, Those are two fascinating drachms, thanks for posting <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. The top coin looks to be from the Eastern Celts, Danube Region. The portrait of Heracles now looks like a Sun god with that radiating hair, &amp; Zeus on the reverse holding the eagle is still close to the original design. I like the amphora in the background, but the raised line over the feet of Zeus has me confused <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie5" alt=":confused:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. Could it be a spear <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie12" alt="o_O" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />? The bottom coin looks to be Gallo-Belgic &amp; highly devolved <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. Could the coin have been broken to make small change <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie12" alt="o_O" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />? If only coins could talk <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie85" alt=":smuggrin:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
