    A very nice high grade example. It is a very busy reverse type.

    Thanks Martin, it is indeed. And this coin has a decent reverse strike - all the details are there.

    I had a self-enforced break over the summer, but maybe I should have kept collecting little by little. What good does a hiatus do if you come back and buy 25 coins in a month???

    Not sure about the colors, Chris - seller's photo which I doctored by taking some of the green out. I only won it last night.

    BTW, I got my copies of Lindgren today, but haven't found the Emesa piece yet. He had four from Emesa in his collection, but none of them match your type. However: it may be from a different city, and these books are thick, so I'll keep hunting through them.

    It might be unlisted - it happens. Maybe we'll end up calling it Chrsmat 1. The Syrian types haven't been as extensively studied as others. There's plenty of room for new coins.
