<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ancientnut, post: 2485980, member: 73212&quot;]I had been looking for a Gela tetradrachm for awhile, too, Collect89. I finally bought mine on May 22 in Nomos 12, Zurich. It is dated about 30 years later than yours. At 30 mm, it is one of the widest Gela tetradrachms I&#039;ve ever seen:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]525303[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Gela, Sicily, AR Tetradrachm, c 450-440 BC, 30 mm, 16.45 g, 5h.
