[QUOTE="YOC, post: 2323315, member: 58941"][ATTACH=full]470020[/ATTACH] Happy New Year to you all..... I have been away for some time and have missed the forum. I hope you are all still well...... For some time now I have wanted to own a large Ptolemaic bronze... I confess to not knowing much about the coins or indeed the dynasty, but I do like the look and feel of them having viewed a few at coin fairs. I once saw one I really liked, but it was £250 GBP, which is more than I wanted to spend, so I held back waiting for the right coin within my budget. Just recently I managed to acquire a joblot of 6 bronze coins which I think are all from the Ptolemaic dynasty..... The seller knew less than me about them and we agreed a price for the 6. 3 of the coins are in my opinion quite attractive and the other 3 are quite rough with 2 having bronze disease. I intend to treat them soon. I am keen to have them attributed and also for an idea of value if possible as I have no idea whether I did well or not , but have no books with which to do this. If anyone can help with the attribution, or give me a head start with a good online resource, I would be very grateful. I will now post them individually as Ptolemy coin 1 ID please ..... etc. with weight and diameter. Thanks again..... YOC[/QUOTE]
