<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 4922350, member: 19463&quot;]Did your auction listing supply the Boehringer number for this coin?&nbsp; Most of the dies for these are illustrated online in more than one site and evidence of what was &#039;touched&#039; and what was original would be shown in comparison.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.wildwinds.com/coins/pdfs/Syracuse_Boehringer_and_Tudeer.pdf" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.wildwinds.com/coins/pdfs/Syracuse_Boehringer_and_Tudeer.pdf" rel="nofollow">https://www.wildwinds.com/coins/pdfs/Syracuse_Boehringer_and_Tudeer.pdf</a></p><p>Look in the 40-60 range for the legitimate Rasta styles.</p><p><br /></p><p>The link below is harder to use but shows a chart of which V (obverse) dies were used with which R dies. </p><p><a href="http://www.magnagraecia.nl/coins/Area_IV_map/Syracusa_map/Boehringer_034.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.magnagraecia.nl/coins/Area_IV_map/Syracusa_map/Boehringer_034.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.magnagraecia.nl/coins/Area_IV_map/Syracusa_map/Boehringer_034.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Do note that the Arathusa side of this coin is the reverse with the chariot correctly being the obverse so what is needed is a Boehringer &#039;R&#039; number.&nbsp; Anyone interested could loot at the choices and see if a die match can be found but many sellers provide this data and could say us work by providing a starting place.&nbsp; It might be shown in the format Boeh.xxx (Vyyy, Rzzz).&nbsp; For years I have wanted the book but it seemed silly to spend the money when I own so few coins in it.&nbsp; If I were a billionaire, I would collect the series.</p><p><a href="https://www.vcoins.com/en/stores/ancient_numismatic_enterprise/9/product/die_munzen_von_syrakus_by_erich_boehringer__coins_of_syracuse/40492/Default.aspx" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.vcoins.com/en/stores/ancient_numismatic_enterprise/9/product/die_munzen_von_syrakus_by_erich_boehringer__coins_of_syracuse/40492/Default.aspx" rel="nofollow">https://www.vcoins.com/en/stores/ancient_numismatic_enterprise/9/product/die_munzen_von_syrakus_by_erich_boehringer__coins_of_syracuse/40492/Default.aspx</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
