<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ryan McVay, post: 8333078, member: 117904&quot;]I recently picked up a rather rare Civic Issue from Antioch. Looking at the coin, one might assume that this is a McAlee 130 var. and that is what I have found on many of the other &quot;examples&quot; I have found. But there are two issues that need to be addressed.</p><p>1. The coin is dated ΔIP which makes this a year 111 coin. Time of Nero. Not ZOP as shown on McAlee 130</p><p>2. The weight is half that of McAlee 130 (3.1-4.1 vs 1.41g)</p><p><br /></p><p>I tried to follow the crisscrossed references in McAlee to try and determine if this is chalkon or dichalkon. </p><p><br /></p><p><b>If anyone has a decent grasp of the weights I would greatly appreciate any help in determining what denomination I should attribute to this coin!</b></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1477178[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>This is a 1.41g @ 13mm</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s a better example from an Agora Sale 47 Lot 55. This coin is identical in weight and size.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1477179[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s an example of McAlee 130 @ 3.1g, 15mm and ZOP</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1477182[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
