<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mat, post: 4046048, member: 21445&quot;]One area of coins I lack is Nabatean coinage. I only have one bronze coin &amp; it was from a secret Santa here on CT several years ago.</p><p><br /></p><p>Recently one was listed on ebay, for as usual for me, an excellent price. I know Nabatean silver coins are a bit scarce, to begin with.</p><p><br /></p><p>This coin was freshly listed &amp; I quickly purchased it. Less than $37 total after tax and free shipping.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t know if anyone here other then [USER=42773]@John Anthony[/USER] would know the year since there are some marks to the left of the obverse. Since he isn&#039;t posting much, hopefully someone else may know?</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.postimg.cc/GmF8n4Ty/nabesil.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>Rabbel II, with Gamilat (70 - 106 A.D.)</p><p>AR Drachm</p><p>O:&nbsp; Laureate and draped bust of Rabbel II right; date in legend</p><p>R: Veiled and draped bust of Gamilat right</p><p>Petra mint</p><p>3.07g</p><p>16mm</p><p>Meshorer, Nabataea 147–61; DCA 985</p><p><br /></p><p>And for thread&#039;s sake, here is the copper coin from secret Santa that is keeping it company.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.postimg.cc/RCn43jCS/nab.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>Malichus II &amp; Shuqailat II (40 - 70 A.D.)</p><p>Nabataean Kingdom</p><p>Æ Unit</p><p>O: Jugate busts of Malichus &amp; Shuqailatt right</p><p>R: Crossed Cornucopia</p><p>1.
