<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 828624, member: 19463&quot;]Two weeks ago and the coins are already as bright as new?&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>From the article: &quot;Some of the coins bear the inscription King Alexander in Greek, while others say Alexander or carry the name of King Philip, most likely referring to his father.&quot;&nbsp; Coins of Alexander&#039;s father Philip II are of a completely different design and should have received more distinct mention while those of his half brother Philip III are the same design distinguished by legend.&nbsp; It bothers me a bit that a professional in the field would make this slip but it is quite possible that it would creep into an AP write-up.&nbsp; One never knows how much to believe when such stories hit the popular press.&nbsp; Has anyone seen anything on this not copied from this one AP release?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
