<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SeptimusT, post: 3024047, member: 91240&quot;]I ordered this beauty a couple days ago, and just received it today. Although my collection of Alexandrians is modest so far, I have fallen in love with how they feel in hand, and when I saw the reverse on this one I just had to have it. I give my sincerest thanks to [USER=76544]@Brian Bucklan[/USER] for his excellent service and prices over at Bargain Bin Ancients. I hope he won&#039;t mind that I&#039;ve also included his photo as a thumbnail, since I wasn&#039;t particularly satisfied with my ability to capture this one, despite much trying.</p><p><br /></p><p>It appears to be pretty rare, and I&#039;ve only been able to find a couple other examples, but in general this one would seem to be in pretty good condition for the type. My photography skills and equipment really can&#039;t do it justice, but you&#039;ll just have to trust me that it&#039;s a beauty. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]752461[/ATTACH] </p><p><b>Domitian Drachm</b></p><p><b>Obverse</b>: Laureate bust right</p><p><b>Reverse</b>: Domitian standing right in elephant quadriga, holding laurel branch and eagle-tipped scepter; to right above elephants: Nike standing right, holding wreath and palm frond, IE (date) in exergue</p><p><b>Minted at Alexandria in 96 AD</b></p><p><b><br /></b></p><p><b>[ATTACH]752463[/ATTACH] </b>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
