I also just realised I have no Greek coins from Central Greece and Magna Graecia :confused:. What a shame, time to make a change to that in the next auctions! :) If you have any maps with your coins share them here! Also, out of my own interest, post your coins where you know the find spot was. Would be very interesting to see an Athenian tetradrachm found somewhere in Sicily.[/QUOTE]
