<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Al Kowsky, post: 3197656, member: 97383&quot;]Earlier this I sold two Phoenician tetradrachms struck at the mint of Tyre, under the authority of Emperor Caracalla, c. 213-217 CE, see photos below. The coin on the left side is a profile view of Caracalla seen from behind, Prieur #1546A, 12.09 gm., &amp; the coin on the right side is a profile view seen from the front, Prieur #1549 13.23 gm. The reverses on both, coins although struck from different dies, are amazingly similar &amp; look like they could have been made by the same celator. The eagles, their size &amp; layout, &amp; the lettering look like they were done by the same hand. Despite the portraits being different they do share style similarities, &amp; again the lettering style, size &amp; layout look like they were done by the same hand. Any thoughts ?[ATTACH=full]826908[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]826909[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
