[QUOTE="zumbly, post: 2007471, member: 57495"]I think this one may qualify as rare as well. Ziegler ([I]Army and municipal money: Studies on the coinage of Anazarbos and other Eastern Cilician cities[/I]) records two examples - in the Levante and ANS collections. I've found no other sale records anywhere for this type, and as I don't have the references would have been at a loss to confirm the legends and attribution without help from Dane at Wildwinds. [ATTACH=full]360855[/ATTACH] [B]MAXIMINUS THRAX [/B] AE Hexassarion 20.44g, 38mm CILICIA, Anazarbus, 235 - 238 AD. Ziegler 663 (Vs2/Rs4), SNG Levante 1480 (same obv. die). O: AY K G IOY OYH MAZIMEINOC CEB, laureate, draped and cuirassed bust right. R: ANAZ END MHTRO B-G CYNQYCIA OI KOYMENHC, (ME and NH ligate), female figure (Synthysia), holding bipennis over shoulder, standing left before bull standing left. Ex Kelly J. Krizan, M.D. Collection.[/QUOTE]
