<p>[QUOTE="TheRed, post: 3107759, member: 87080"]Well, I was close, but guessed the wrong Antiochos. With the Seleucids all it takes is the name Antiochos and you cover around 1/3 of their rulers. Have you ever read Houghton's article on the mint of Laodiciea ad Mare? I've never seen it available and am wondering where it can be found. </p><p><br /></p><p>[USER=86398]@gogili1977[/USER] I would really want to see it in hand, if possible. The coin has a nice flan, but I would want to see how much detail is visible in person vs the photo. Only going on the photos, I would ask for a lower price. If the dealer wasnt willing to come down lower than 125eur I would probably buy it since I collect Seleucid tets and it is a less common mint of theirs. If you don't care about those factors and just want an Alexander III tet than I would say save your money and pass on the coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
