    Hi gang.

    I had a dealer who didn't really deal with ancients throw these in with a trade deal. The kicker is that he used these to cover about $100 in difference. If they are good I think they are worth far more then that.

    I'm not sure if they are good or not as far as genuine is concerned tho.

    Any thoughts would be appreciated.

    First: Antiochos VII Tetradrachm 16.6g

    If you got those for $100, you done very very well. I'll give you $110 for all three so you can say you made a profit. Whatdya say ole buddy? Heh?

    Well that makes sense as to why I was having trouble identifying it... haha!

    I was thinking that they looked pretty good as compared to some of the Alexander tet's I have owned.... but I wanted to zip them past you guys.
