<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Al Kowsky, post: 4431497, member: 97383&quot;]James, Interesting article &amp; nice score on the Janiform diobol <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />! The coin pictured below is a style copy of the famous tetradrachm of Tenedos, circa 160 BC, AV: 19.95 gm, 29 mm, made by the copyist-forger Slavey Petrov. Instead of the original coin struck in silver, Petrov struck (actually pressed) this coin in pure gold. The figures in the Janiform are Tenes (founder of the island) &amp; Philonome. The reverse depicts the double headed axe of Dionysus, with a bunch of grapes to the left &amp; a figure of Artemis with a stag &amp; torch to the right. This is the 1st coin I won at a CNG auction many years ago.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1109451[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
