<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Al Kowsky, post: 4091711, member: 97383&quot;]It seems my New Years pledge to restrain myself from buying more ancient coins was an exercise in futility <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie88" alt=":sour:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. I would have had more success giving up pasta &amp; pizza <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie80" alt=":shame:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. I usually don&#039;t seek coins from Roman Egypt but I actively search for rare or interesting tetradrachms of Philip II, therefor justifying the purchase of this coin <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Egypt, Alexandria. Philip II as Augustus, AD 247-249 (dated Regnal year 6 of Philip I).</b> Billon tetradrachm: 23 mm, 11 h. Reverse: Homonoia holding a cornucopia &amp; raising her hand.
