<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Urban_Lawyer, post: 1398740, member: 36361&quot;]I received this coin (pictured below -- taken with my phone but I can make better pictures if needed) from my family after a great aunt passed away.&nbsp; I understand it to be Greek, but I don&#039;t know anything else about it.&nbsp; My research has lead me to believe it may be from the Greek colony of Akragas on the island of Sicily, circa 500 B.C.&nbsp; The crab seems to be consistent with other coins from that colony, as does the inscription on the obverse.&nbsp; However, the bird on the back does not appear to be as &quot;sharp&quot; or &quot;detailed&quot; as some of the examples I&#039;ve seen online.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anybody have any thoughts, or estimation of what its value is?</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]168016.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]168017.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
