<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TheRed, post: 3229077, member: 87080&quot;]Congrats on the tet of Seleukos [USER=81093]@AussieCollector[/USER]&nbsp; you got a great coin with the nice Susa bust.&nbsp; Welcome to the Seleucid fan club.&nbsp; I would argue that your coin is distinctly Seleucid as it has the name of Seleukos on the reverse.&nbsp; Besides, those Seleukos/trophy, zeus/quadriga elephants, and horse/elephant tetradrachms can get very expensive.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I recently picked up a tet of Seleukos I from Seleukeia on the Tigris for the control mark on the reverse.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]842800[/ATTACH]</p><p>I would also recommend the book <i>Coins of the Seleucid Empire from the Collection of Arthur Houghton</i> by Oliver D. Hoover as a good introductory work on Seleucid coins.&nbsp; It can be found for $60 or so in used condition with a little patience and hunting.&nbsp; </p><p>[ATTACH=full]842802[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
