[QUOTE="Jochen1, post: 3995561, member: 103829"]Dear [USER=106319]@Romancollector[/USER]! Thank you for your request. Here is your coin: Obv.: AVT K M ANT Γ-OPΔIANOC AVΓ Bust draped and cuirassed, seen from behind, laureate, r. Rev.: VΠ CAB MOΔECTOV - NIKOΠOΛEIT / [U]ΩN[/U] [U]ΠP[/U]OC ICTP Glykon snake on rod in 2 coils erecting r.; head surrounded by nimbus Ref.: a) not in AMNG b) Varbanov 4146 corr. (same dies, but writes A[U]VΓ[/U] in error) c) Hristova/Hoeft/Jekov (2018) 8.36.22.4 (same dies) Notes: (1) AMNG has only the type "Snake erecting [B]in several coils[/B], head with nimbus r.", No. 2104 (2) Varbanov basically does not consider legend breaks or ligatures. But on the depicted coin you can clearly read AVΓ without ligature. (3) Because Hristova/Hoeft/Jekov is a work in progress and a new updated edition will be published every 1-2 years, it is necessary to always note the year of the edition. (4) The coin from CNG is a double die match to your coin. Best regards Jochen[/QUOTE]
