<p>[QUOTE="Pavlos, post: 5114534, member: 96635"]Definitely, everywhere in the former Alexandrian Empire there was a decline in style.

Thank you! Nice tetradrachm of Thasos. Great portrait of Dionysos! Hehe thanks [USER=91461]@Ryro[/USER]. I am still jealous of your awesome Seleukos drachm. Maroneia made bronze coins with the same design as it's tetradrachms. Wonderful coins! That first coin is great with the panther. Nice example! That bronze coin is absolutely amazing, so well struck. And a very nice tetradrachm. You have a relatively early and more artistic style. The reference says this as well, mine is in the 1347-9 series, yours in the 1200-1210 series.
