<p>[QUOTE="Theodosius, post: 2684025, member: 77077"]Here is a cool provincial coin I picked up at the ANA Spring show in Orlando last week. I really liked the reverse type and the fact that Philip is depicted bare headed. I don't think I saw any threads on the ANA show. I had work obligations and could not go until Saturday. There were supposed to be a dozen ancient dealers present. Some had left by Saturday but I did get to spend time with 6 dealers and scored a number of nice coins. The show seemed to have only moderate traffic on Saturday, the dealers said Thursday and Friday were busier. Did any other coin talk folks go?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]600531[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Moesia, Tomis</p><p>Philip II, A.D. 244-249</p><p>AE 26, 11.29 gm</p><p>Obverse: Bare headed and cuirassed bust right.</p><p>Reverse: Griffin seated facing left, right foreleg on wheel.</p><p>Varbanov 5781</p><p><br /></p><p>Post any coins with Griffins or Philip II.</p><p><br /></p><p>John[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
