<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Terence Cheesman, post: 7850672, member: 86498&quot;]Philip II Ar Tetradrachm Amphipolis 355-348 BC Obv. Head of Zeus right laureate. Rv. King riding prancing horse left right hand raised in salute. 14.37 grms 23 mm Photo by W. Hansen</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1351905[/ATTACH]&nbsp;&nbsp; This is an example of the first series minted by Philip II which features the image of the king on the reverse. The second series which features a jockey riding a powerfully built horse&nbsp; started in 348 BC and continued possibly as late as 294 BC some three years after the death of Kassander. Perhaps as interesting is the fact that even though I have owned this coin for about 30 years purchasing it in October 5 1991it is only now beginning to tone.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
