<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 2211613, member: 26302&quot;][ATTACH=full]432143[/ATTACH]Just another random Sogdian piece, this one from South Sogdia, Kesh. I have another example with a clearer obverse, but most I have ever seen have blank reverses. I haven&#039;t seen one for sale before with the reverse struck up. As you can see, the reverse is pretty low relief, so I assume most either through weak strikes or wear are no longer showing.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This one was fate. I hadn&#039;t seen it on Ebay and was browsing though some old sellers by chance today. This one popped up with 45 seconds to go! Talk about a close one. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If anyone remembers the older thread I had with the Alexander type derivative, this is from the same mint. The Alexander piece was probably 300-200 BC, while this one more like 200-300AD. Very rare of course, as are most Sogdian pieces, but this one more than most.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
