[QUOTE="Marsyas Mike, post: 5246619, member: 85693"]Well either way, it is a very nice coin, 7Calbrey! The reason I was poking around old threads and leaving "likes" was because yesterday I got a Heiron II Posiedon issue from Syracuse. My local dealer had it in his new ancients stock - usually his stuff is out of my price range, but he only wanted $20 for this one, so what the heck. Whenever I get something new, I poke around old threads to see what else is out there. Here's mine: [ATTACH=full]1218464[/ATTACH] [B]Syracuse Litra (Æ 17) Hieron II (c. 274-216 B.C.)[/B] Diademed head of Poseidon left / IEPΩ-NOΣ, ornamented trident head flanked by two dolphins; Δ(A? or P?) lower right. BAR Issue 60; HGC 2, 1550. [B]Note:[/B] ΔP or ΔA possible for letters at lower right reverse. (8.16 grams / 17 mm )[/QUOTE]
