[QUOTE="ambr0zie, post: 8293456, member: 80952"]Hello ladies and gentlemen, I bought a Ariobarzanes I Philoromaios budget drachm as I wanted one of this type. While trying to attribute it (I have not studied these series so far) I see that the distinctive elements are the monogram in the left field and the date. [ATTACH=full]1466265[/ATTACH] Checked the Wildwinds page and it appears the monogram is the VAT type - found 3 times on the page and with attribution Simonetta 38d On my coin the date in the exergue is off the flan, however the Wildwinds examples with this monogram have KH date, but on my coin this does not seem the correct date? From what I can distinguish, the date starts with a Z but this is not an option as inexistent. AΛ perhaps?! If somebody has deep knowledge regarding Ariobarzanes I Philoromaios and can clarify, I would be grateful.[/QUOTE]
