Message:: [QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 2602656, member: 10461"]Thanks.  This will be the second ancient Greek in my <a href="https://www.cointalk.com/media/albums/eclectic-box-of-20.497/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.cointalk.com/media/albums/eclectic-box-of-20.497/">"Eclectic Box of 20"</a>. Here is the other. Ancient Greece (Kingdom of Macedon), silver "Mercenaries" drachm of King Perseus, ca. 175-170 BC <img src="http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k173/lordmarcovan/Thessaly-Pseudo-Rhodian-drachm-091100-coin-800x500.png" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> <img src="http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k173/lordmarcovan/Thessaly-Pseudo-Rhodian-drachm-091100-slab.png" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> I actually just bought a much less expensive one, not for the Box of 20, but for the <a href="https://forums.collectors.com/discussion/973633/numismatic-gladiator-xi-aethelred-vs-lordmarcovan-battle-of-the-bovines" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://forums.collectors.com/discussion/973633/numismatic-gladiator-xi-aethelred-vs-lordmarcovan-battle-of-the-bovines" rel="nofollow">Numismatic Gladiator XI</a> cheap coin competition on Collectors Universe.  (For the moment, I'll leave everyone to guess which of the two coins I purchased there.) And I'll be buying another Seleucid AE soon, which is not quite "Box of 20" caliber, but nice.[/QUOTE]
