[QUOTE="danielus, post: 26017343, member: 32214"]Hello: Thank you for the catalog! I kept intrigued by the story of Seleukos and the bull and the gorgon on the obverse, and searching a bit I found this book: [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/qndT4gq.png[/IMG] The Early Seleukids, Their Gods and Their Coins (Erickson, Kyle). I leave it here, it deals among other things, precisely with the image of the bull, it takes as an example your coin, and a little further on it comments on the Gorgon/Medusa. I really liked it a lot. On the other hand, on this site: [URL]https://www.seleukidempire.org/SeleukosNikator.htm[/URL] This image appears, I suppose it is ¿¿?? Just curious, the site does not detail much about it. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/b4DFHCZ.jpeg[/IMG] Series 3, Bronze Denomination D (13mm, 1.59g), late 280s BC Obv. Winged head of Medusa r., dotted border. Rev. BA above, SE below, bull butting r. on ex. line, dotted border. If you are interested in the book I leave it in an epub .rar file 6.7 MB +- [URL]https://www.mediafire.com/file/igzh9onfrgt05s8/The+Early+S.rar/file[/URL] Best regards and thanks for the data, I had a good day of reading.:)[/QUOTE]
