The reverse is of Philip, seated holding a globe, surrounded by the usual titles, PP, TRP II, COS, PP. When I acquire coins, eye appeal is important to me and this is an example of a good portrait of an interesting character. Unfortunately the reverse is a mushy strike but since, for me, the&nbsp; obverse is usually more important than the reverse so I find it quite pleasing to view. It is also an example of a good ancient coin at a pretty low cost. Its weight is 4.65 grams[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
