<p>[QUOTE="Al Kowsky, post: 3934742, member: 97383"]Pellinore, Congratulations on scoring this handsome provincial coin from Cilicia <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. The coin has an attractive patina & being dated is a big plus. The reverse on your coin & the one TIF posted illustrate fascinating narratives not often seen on imperial issues. They can really drive a collectors imagination <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. I've only got one coin from Anazarbus that I've posted before, but it seems appropriate to post it on your thread too. I bought this coin slabbed & overpaid for it but have no regrets about that either. I did remove it from the slab because I don't like to see large bronze coins slabbed <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie7" alt=":p" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. A coin of the same type as mine sold sold in the <b>Holmes Auction</b> by <b>CNG</b> last April for a hammer price of $110.00, proving there are bargains to be had with provincial coins.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1037018[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1037019[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
[QUOTE="Al Kowsky, post: 3934742, member: 97383"]Pellinore, Congratulations on scoring this handsome provincial coin from Cilicia :D. The coin has an attractive patina & being dated is a big plus. The reverse on your coin & the one TIF posted illustrate fascinating narratives not often seen on imperial issues. They can really drive a collectors imagination :rolleyes:.
