    Sallent, Both of your new coins are awesome and it would be hard for me to choose one from the other. I would want them both.

    TIF : This coin is superb, with reliefs which are only found on tetradrachms.

    This brings the question of when we last see the Alexandria large AE drachms. Emmett lists them for Philip and has questionable listings a late as Aurelian and Vahabalathus. The unique 'bronze' attributed to Maximinus was said by some experts to just be a tetradrachm that suffered more than most. Who has one later than my Caracalla?
