[QUOTE="Mat, post: 2285875, member: 21445"]Not sure, I think they are just marks. Mine has one too, but is right facing. Left facings are a tad scarce but can be found. Shame your obverse is very off center. Never seen a Antioch Tet that badly off center on the obverse. [img]https://www.cointalk.com/proxy.php?image=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cointalk.com%2Fproxy.php%3Fimage%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fs1.postimg.org%252Fif519td2n%252Fgordtet1.jpg%26hash%3D7bdbaf6da7e90872f20de3f568068d46&hash=f5336e583c685fc825ae95adecd6e886[/img] Gordian III (238 - 244 A.D.) AR Tetradrachm Syria, Seleucis and Pieria. Antioch O: AVTOK K M ANT GORDIANOC CEB, laureate, draped and cuirassed bust right R: DHMAPX EX UPATO B, eagle standing facing, head left with wreath in beak, below, crescent & ram running left. Antioch Mint, Struck 242 A.D. 27mm 13.5g Prieur 301[/QUOTE]
