<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mikjo0, post: 131414, member: 3565&quot;]I just added two more of these little coins to the collection.They are typical small change from the dozens of Greek City/States from the era.</p><p>First is a 1/8 shekel from Phoenicia (c.350 BC) featuring a war galley on the obv. and deity fighting a lion.Note that both are standing up...funny.</p><p>Second is a 1/12 stater from the city of Miletos (c.500 BC)&nbsp; in Asia Minor.The obv. is a nice lion&#039;s head and the rev. is a nice incuse star pattern.</p><p>It still amazes me that they could create intricate designs on coins this small 2500 years ago.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
