<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JGGonzalez, post: 2708169, member: 84491&quot;]Here&#039;s one I just ordered from Civitas Galleries on Vcoins. The seller attributes it to Alexander the Great, but I&#039;m not sure. The legs look parallel and the &quot;Basileus&quot; title is at the bottom. That, plus the small flan and light weight suggest Babylon to me, so I&#039;m guessing it was either struck at the end of his lifetime (slim chance) or afterwards (most likely). At first I thought the low weight meant it was a fake, but then I found a few other Babylonian examples in auctions at weights ranging from 14.5g and up. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]610877[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
