<p>[QUOTE="TuckHard, post: 4287945, member: 102653"]I just got these two Ptolemaic coppers from an unidentified lot off of eBay, both combined with shipping for around $5. Definitely feels like a steal! And it's something that I've never bothered with much before so I'm quite curious. I'm looking around Wildwinds and can't find anything that looks like an exact match on either of these and it looks like the general "Zeus-Ammon right and two eagles" design type was used for several rulers such as Ptolemy II Philadelphus, Ptolemy VI, Ptolemy IX, etc. I'd really appreciate any advice or help with these two! I'd also love to see anyone else's coins from Ptolemaic Egypt or other relevant powers.</p><p style="text-align: center">[ATTACH=full]1091477[/ATTACH] </p> <p style="text-align: center">Ptolemaic Dynasty of Egypt</p> <p style="text-align: center">8.22g - 22mm - 3mm thick</p> <p style="text-align: center"><br /></p> <p style="text-align: center"><br /></p> <p style="text-align: center">[ATTACH=full]1091476[/ATTACH] </p> <p style="text-align: center">Ptolemaic Dynasty of Egypt</p> <p style="text-align: center">8.67g - 20mm - 4mm thick</p><p>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
