[QUOTE="Marsyas Mike, post: 7578252, member: 85693"]Not to be Mr. Obvious, and I'm sure you already know this - but since I didn't see it in your description - that Ptolemy II obol has a really, really nice trident countermark. I like it! I wish I had one to share, but I do not :(. There's some examples on this great site: [URL]http://ptolemybronze.com/ptolemy_series.html[/URL] That Eratosthenes was a smart guy. If I were around back then, I'd've probably argued with him about a flat earth. Science and math were never my strong suits.[/QUOTE]
