I will. :) Aegina stater (admittedly not a lot like yours!): [ATTACH=full]1006667[/ATTACH] The Geta as reminds me of this "pseudo-medallion" of Sev Alex, an as struck on a carefully made sestertius flan, also probably linked to a ceremony, probably the reception of his third tribunician power at the beginning of 224. This coin is not in RIC. [ATTACH=full]1006668[/ATTACH] Last, because you like Athenian fractions, here's a tetartemorion: [ATTACH=full]1006670[/ATTACH] (Yes, I should be finishing up AMCC 2 rather than posting here.
