<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 2511046, member: 19463"]Did you visit page 155 where Tye 424 is shown again with some additional information? Some numbers benefit greatly from going to the 'rest of the story' section but 424 adds little since Tye mentions the coin is known from three dates but only illustrates one and doe not tell which one. I assume Tye assumes I read Arabic. My bad. Compare on page 154 the great expansion of Tye 419 which shows eleven dates in Hindu characters which are labels (I guess I am not expected to read Hindu characters?). Can you guess why I selected this off center specimen? Well centered coins may not be as easy to date. This AH 700 is easy because it is one he shows. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]534055[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>This one is a AH698, I believe, because it seems to have a similar 69 from his 699 and an 8 from his 708. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]534057[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>OK, who wants a year date set of these coins?
