<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SanClem, post: 2523129, member: 81964&quot;]Thismone is a puzzler. From what I can make out the reverse inscription EOKOR (6 o&#039;clock) places this coin from Ephesos, Ionia, and has the same depiction of the Temple of Artemis found in Lindgren 461 Antoninus Pius. So far so good. However the obverse portrait looks like Severus, and the inscription appears to contain SEP (10 o&#039;clock). However, I can&#039;t find this obverse/reverse combination in any of the sources I consulted. Does that seem reasonable? Even a few more letters would help. Are there any tricks for reading weak inscriptions you&#039;d suggest?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]538246[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]538247[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
