<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2277943, member: 19463&quot;]The coin is listed on Svoronos, Corpus of the Ancient Coins of Athens Plate 47 - 5 through 8 but yours is weak at the bottom making the letters there unclear.&nbsp; By chance, Bing&#039;s coin is the same with the same three magistrate names.&nbsp; Mine below has two of the same names but I have Kallikrates where you have Eumenes.&nbsp; That makes mine Plate 47- 2.&nbsp; I agree with the price given for a coin with your obverse and Bing&#039;s reverse but I think it a bit high considering the faults on both coins as they are.&nbsp; </p><p>[ATTACH=full]454807[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>There are many of these with different symbols where you have the eagle and magistrate names.&nbsp; My other one is below with thunderbolt and completely different names.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]454811[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>In nice condition these are very popular and expensive.&nbsp; Worn ones like we have are easier to find but still not cheap.&nbsp; One dealer points out that there were estimated to be 8000 &#039;above ground&#039; in 1961 when a book on them (Thompson - I do not have that one.) was written. That number has certainly grown but who knows how much.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
