[QUOTE="Mikey Zee, post: 2169885, member: 72818"]Back in November while just reentering coin collecting again after a lengthy hiatus, I started bidding on Heritage and purchased a few uncleaned lots on eBay; most were slugs and many very low grade and identifiable, but a few (VERY FEW) were about Fine to Very Fine---and this coin falls among the latter. It is a right facing radiate of Philippus unmistakably of Viminacium, Moesia Superior with the Bull and Lion reverse. It seems to be a match with SNG COP 151, an AE-28 of about 16.5 grams...(Notice the 'ancient' hole for a chain). Forgive the photos, but it's stormy here now and I still haven't resolved my 'light' issue(s) yet--BUT I WILL TIF----PROMISE!!! Please post any Philip the Arab coins you have or any recently cleaned coins with some eye-appeal... [ATTACH=full]418863[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]418864[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
