<p>[QUOTE="TuckHard, post: 8312725, member: 102653"]This sent me deep but thank you so much for reading the coin! Looking at all of the Zeus ANTIOXEΩN TΩN coins, the TΩN portion was never under the legs of Zeus like that so I started looking deeper, thinking my coin still had a cornucopia. I actually went back through my own collection notes and found that I tried to ID this back about two years ago and landed on a Hendin 414. Looking around even more, I saw <a href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=5062630" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=5062630" rel="nofollow">one example</a> which had a bundle of grapes next to the cornucopia- a feature mine seemed to exhibit. Wildwinds had another grape coin, this time called Rouvier 962. There are <a href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?term=Rouvier+962%09&category=1-2&lot=&thesaurus=1&images=1&en=1&de=1&fr=1&it=1&es=1&ot=1&currency=usd&order=0" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?term=Rouvier+962%09&category=1-2&lot=&thesaurus=1&images=1&en=1&de=1&fr=1&it=1&es=1&ot=1&currency=usd&order=0" rel="nofollow">more examples</a> of these. These align with your Ake-Ptolemaïs, roughly time of Antiochus IV attribution Sulla80 (and your Seleucid guess Ryro!), so many thanks for the confirmation! This all just tells me that I need to get better at reading Greek legends and organize my notes better.</p><p><br /></p><p style="text-align: center">[ATTACH=full]1471506[/ATTACH]</p> <p style="text-align: center"><br /></p> <p style="text-align: center"><br /></p><p>Quick edit: The style of the cornucopia on my coin is quite unlike the Rouvier 962 shown above.
