[QUOTE="Ryro, post: 3635087, member: 91461"]Thanks! And marvelous winged thunderbolt on your reverse:wideyed: Love the monogram as well. Makes the mind wonder whom was it for? They felt by putting it there we would see their mark and be assured. And what's up with their off center obvereses? Did they suffer many earthquakes in Lydia?? Employee to many Kevins??? Though I do have good centering on the one above, here's my first lydian shield coin: [ATTACH=full]975298[/ATTACH] LYDIA. Philadelphia. Ae (Circa 1st century BC). Obv: Macedonian shield with star on boss. Rev: ΦΙΛΑΔЄΛΦЄΩΝ. Winged thunderbolt within wreath. Control: Monogram above. Cf. SNG Copenhagen 343-7 (Monogram). Condition: Extremely fine. Weight: 2.68 g. Diameter: 13 mm.[/QUOTE]
