<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2189895, member: 19463&quot;]Graffito (plural=graffiti) is writing, scribbling on the coin with a sharp point.&nbsp; Sometimes it is a name or something we understand but sometime just scratching.</p><p>Note the Phi on this Sikyon reverse.&nbsp; If you look closely, there is another, faint, phi in the obverse exergue under the E.&nbsp; Perhaps the coin once belonged to someone with that initial?&nbsp; Such marks discount the price of the coin but not as much as damage received in modern times.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]425373[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
