[QUOTE="Smojo, post: 2487474, member: 78058"]I've seen several posts on coins that members have bought on Ancient Forvm. I've also browsed through the site, autions, shop & forums plus all the other educationals offered. It's a good website, I've used it to help attribute & ID some of my coins. But I've never actually bid or bought from there before. Yesterday I was browsing the auctions specifically Ancient Greek. I found a coin that I've had some interest in for a little while. From what I've read almost all known examples have come from a single hoard. The price tag has always just out of my reach at the times I've seen it for sale or at auction. This one isn't in the best condition, but the price was right. I thought it was a great opportunity to get my feet wet and try out the Forvm. I hope this doesn't jinx me. I normally wait until I have the coin in hand before I post. Komama, Pisada Bronze AE14 2.89g, 14.2mm 1st Century B.C Obv.: Laureate head of Zues right Rev.: Lion left KO in center exergue Von Aulock Komama 4; SNG BnF 1439, F Green patina, obv. off center.
