[QUOTE="Finn235, post: 3814179, member: 98035"]Thanks all! I'll try hand at cleaning the Axum coin with distilled water and brushing first - I'll keep you updated if I make progress! And I ran out of room earlier - more goodies from the lot! In no particular order: Arab Byzanine "Three Caliphs" fals - no idea how to ID it any better? Looks to be overstruck on something [ATTACH=full]1016477[/ATTACH] Lucania, Thurium AE, Apollo / Horse [ATTACH=full]1016480[/ATTACH] Same, but apollo / cithara (a type of lyre?) [ATTACH=full]1016481[/ATTACH] This one threw me for a loop... Philip II of Macedon AE 1/4 unit (12mm, 1.04g) Head of Herakles / FILIP-POY above and below club, spear head above Spent an hour scouring coins of Philip III looking for this one before I thought to check daddy! [ATTACH=full]1016482[/ATTACH] Thrace, Chersonesos AR hemidrachm Lion / pellets and HP monogram in quadrupartite [ATTACH=full]1016483[/ATTACH] Lucania, Paestum AE sescuncia Demeter / Wolf [ATTACH=full]1016484[/ATTACH] Another Axum AR! This one I think may be Ousanas? (This is what I *don't* want the Aphilas to look like after cleaning!) [ATTACH=full]1016478[/ATTACH] And this one... I don't know? AE 15mm, 3.55g Obv: Female head (venus?) right Rev: Nike walking left, Phoenician or Punic inscription [ATTACH=full]1016479[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
