<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kaparthy, post: 2970090, member: 57463&quot;]At a local show, I found a nice coin. This diobol of Teos, c. 320-294. It is identified as a diobol but the dealer did not provide a weight. It is about 10 x 12 mm.&nbsp; It is not in Sear Greek Coins. This dealer and others attribute it as Kinns 95.&nbsp; I read about the history of the town. Not much is recorded. The Catholic Encyclopedia provided the best summary. Nonetheless it is a cute little coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>OBV: Gryphon.&nbsp; THI (Tei = of Teos); ALY (beginning of magistrate&#039;s name on REV)</p><p>REV: Chelys (lyre). THI and ALYPI[ON] name of magistrate. His name appears on other coins like this but from obviously different dies.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]728568[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
