<p>[QUOTE="furryfrog02, post: 4604621, member: 41219"]I have come into possession of a few Alexandria tetradrachms from Probus to add to the lone Maximianus in our collection. I've come to be really fond of these chunky little coins. There aren't many reverse designs from what I have seen but I would like to see more. So, as the title says, show us your tets!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Probus</p><p>Potin Tetradrachm of Alexandria</p><p>Year 5 = 279-280 AD</p><p>Obverse: A K M AVΡ ΠΡOBOC CEB, laureate, cuirassed bust right </p><p>Reverse: EL to right, Nike, in long chiton, flying right carrying palm and wreath</p><p>ex [USER=91240]@SeptimusT[/USER] (totally unbeknownst to me!)</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1140494[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Probus</p><p>Potin Tetradrachm of Alexandria</p><p>Year 7=281/282 AD</p><p>Obverse: A K M AVΡ ΠΡOBOC CEB, laureate cuirased bust right </p><p>Reverse: L-Z, eagle standing left, head right with wreath in its beak.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1140493[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Maximianus</p><p>Potin Tetradrachm of Alexandria</p><p>Year 3</p><p>Obverse: A K M OVA MAΞIMIANOC CEB, laureate, draped and cuirassed bust right </p><p>Reverse: Nike walking right, holding palm branch and wreath, L-Γ across fields, star to right.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1140496[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
