[QUOTE="ValiantKnight, post: 2653695, member: 44210"]Thanks David. I'm alright with putting Eusebeia as a placeholder until more detailed info comes my way. Now that I have a drachm, I'll definitely be on the lookout for a Cappadocian tetradrachm that I like and is within budget! Speaking of tetradrachms, I do have one of Demetrius I, the Seleucid ruler that Ariarathes went to war with: [B][U]Demetrius I Soter[/U], Seleucid Empire[/B] AR tetradrachm [B]Obv[/B]: Diademed head right, within wreath [B]Rev[/B]: BASILEWS DHMHTRIOU, Tyche holding scepter and cornucopia, seated left on throne supported by tritoness, monogram to outer left [B]Mint[/B]: Antioch [B]Date[/B]:161-150 BC [B]Size[/B]: 32 mm, 16 gr [B]Ref[/B]: SC 1634 [B]Provenance[/B]: Ex Stephen Glover Collection (Classical Numismatic Group Electronic Auction 264) [IMG]https://www.cointalk.com/attachments/demetrius2-jpg.572944/[/IMG][/QUOTE]
