<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Al Kowsky, post: 7356200, member: 97383&quot;]Inspector43, Congrats on being able to identify &amp; attribute this coin in light of the rough shape it&#039;s in <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie57" alt=":jawdrop:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />! Coinage of Hostilian isn&#039;t common with imperial or provincial issues. Last year I managed to score a nice Hostilian Tet from Antioch, Syria, but my coin is plagued with surface roughness too <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. Well struck coins in high can be very expensive <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1282525[/ATTACH] </p><p><b>Antioch-Syria, Hostilian as Caesar, AD 251, Billon Tetradrachm: 11.74 gm, 27 mm, 8 h, 7th Officina.
