<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Al Kowsky, post: 5179154, member: 97383&quot;]F. Antoine, You&#039;ve got an impressive group of coins with a strong leaning to classical Greek coinage <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />! All these coins were selected with a connoisseur&#039;s eye. My favorite would be #4, the handsome stater depicting Zeus <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. The forceful eagle on the reverse making off with a rabbit adds symbolic strength to the image of Zeus. My 2nd favorite would be #3, the Phalanna drachm. The portrait on this coin is undoubtedly Apollo <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. The portrait is too sensitive &amp; thoughtful to be a god of war <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie85" alt=":smuggrin:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. The dancing, rider-less horse on the reverse is engraved with great skill, complementing the obverse. My 3rd favorite would be #5, with a beautiful portrait &amp; nasty looking lion <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie6" alt=":cool:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
