[QUOTE="Mat, post: 4886246, member: 21445"]I've been continuing to limit my coin buying for the time being within California because of the USPS. My latest additions are 2 Syrian Tetradrachms of Caracalla & Macrinus, not that I needed either in Tetradrachm form but these are scarcer types due to the busts & figures under the eagles.

R: ΔHMAPX EΞ YΠATOC Δ / B - E. Eagle standing facing, head and tail left, with wings spread, holding wreath in beak; between legs, bird facing between legs. 13.38g 27mm Prieur 884 [img]https://i.postimg.cc/cJ90CcnC/mactet2.jpg[/img] Macrinus (217 -218 A.D.) AR Tetradrachm MESOPOTAMIA, Carrhae O: AVT K M ΟΠ CЄ MAKPINOC CЄ, laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust right. R: ΔHMAPX ЄΞ VΠATOC, eagle standing facing on bull's head flanked by pellets, head right, with wings spread, holding wreath in beak. 12.71g 27mm Prieur 827; Bellinger 165[/QUOTE]
