<p>[QUOTE="7Calbrey, post: 2852369, member: 38412"]From my old folder I picked up this curious coin. Having posted it few years ago, I thought there was Apollo on obverse and a palm tree on reverse. Now it turns to be a civic coin from Apameia-Syria which was struck under Augustus Caesar in the year 17 BC. It has rather Dionysos on obverse and thyrsos on reverse. Date E Koppa Sigma in left field of reverse ( local year 295 ). Hoover 1425 RPC 4352.</p><p>The coin has a curious big counter mark of Tyche or Artemis on the obverse. Hence I presume that it's an unlisted coin. Please post your comment.[ATTACH=full]677177[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]677178[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
