<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TIF, post: 2452240, member: 56859&quot;]I have a small handful of Nabataeans, most purchased as a group.&nbsp; My favorite though is this homely Aretas IV.&nbsp; It is the first Nabataean coin acquired by [USER=42773]@John Anthony[/USER] <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I can&#039;t believe he parted with it.&nbsp; John, have you no sentimentality whatsoever?&nbsp; I have reassured the coin that it is desirable and that I won&#039;t kick it out of the house.&nbsp; It cried for days when it first arrived, but now it seems to have made friends and I only hear occasional sobbing from that box. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/ae43f8_052787269b68444ebccc4f842dc09e91.jpg/v1/fill/w_1000,h_500,al_c,q_90/ae43f8_052787269b68444ebccc4f842dc09e91.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><b>NABATAEA, Aretas IV with Queen Shaqilat</b></p><p>9 BCE - CE 40, Petra</p><p>AE18</p><p>Obv:&nbsp; jugate busts of Aretas IV and Shaqilat right</p><p>Rev:&nbsp; crossed cornucopia; Nabataean letters between and below</p><p>Ref:&nbsp;&nbsp; Meshorer 112-114?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
