<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Pellinore, post: 3218577, member: 74834&quot;]Thank you for your beautiful coins and thoughtful comments! I compared my coin to the one on RPC online, but that B is formed a bit differently. And the I <i>might</i> be something else, but it certainly is a purposeful form on the coin. </p><p>You are right that this coin is light for a diobol, but obols look different, they are much smaller. I have this one, that I bought on one of the valued Cointalk JAZ auctions.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]837434[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Picture courtesy JAZ. AE Obol, AD 126-7.
