<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2174081, member: 19463&quot;]Bing and I have the more common New Style type with magistrate names spelled out.&nbsp; In fact, two of the three magistrates on my first coin (the two named on the right of the owl) are the same as Bing&#039;s.&nbsp; Mine has Kallikrates to the left in place of Eumenes.&nbsp;&nbsp; Mine is so worn that the shop letter on the amphora is worn off.&nbsp; This is the high point of of the design.&nbsp; Compare this better one also worn on the amphora:</p><p><a href="http://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=1371460" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=1371460" rel="nofollow">http://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=1371460</a></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]420144[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>My other one has a thunderbolt and three different names. Theofra Sota&nbsp; Peison .c. B.C. 150 is the listing I find for the type online. I do not own the Thompson book on these and doubt I will be getting any more of the coins.&nbsp; I would like to have an example of the less popular drachm of the series, however.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]420143[/ATTACH]</p><p>Compare:</p><p><a href="http://numismatics.org/collection/1963.31.270" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://numismatics.org/collection/1963.31.270" rel="nofollow">http://numismatics.org/collection/1963.31.270</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
