[QUOTE="Windchild, post: 1679363, member: 44189"]First, the two coins I will be describing. First, My Favorite Coin... A Beautiful Carthage AE17! [IMG]http://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/albums/userpics/35509/normal_Carthage_1.jpg[/IMG] [TABLE="class: cms_table_tableb, width: 100%"] [TR] [TD][LEFT]Carthage Siculo-Punic Mint 370-325BC Wreathed head of Tanit left Horse galloping right 17mm, 5.5 grams gVF Sassari 56-136, Holleman Munten List 106 Beautiful Green Patina [/LEFT] [/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] One of the best of this type... period! Second, a coin from Gitbud Naumann. - No Permission... Yet ;) - I am going to email them to see if I can use them for research Carthage AE11 [IMG]http://www.vcoins.com/backoffice/upload/product_image/66/4/6/4Kepk8H74G8rwoQ2Dy9S5mfRFgX36N.jpg[/IMG] [TABLE="class: cms_table_tableb, width: 100%"] [TR] [TD][LEFT]Carthage Siculo-Punic Mint 370-325BC Head of Tanit left Horse galloping right 11mm, 2.6 grams VF - Minor Damage Sassari 56-136, Holleman Munten List 106 [/LEFT] [/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] From: [url]http://www.vcoins.com/en/stores/gitbudnaumann/66/product/the_carthaginians_in_sicily_and_north_africa___ae__head_of_tanitpersephone__horse/141135/Default.aspx[/url]. Now, my writeup. Both coins share the shame time period, mint place, definition, and catalog number, as shown by the table. [TABLE="class: cms_table_tableb, width: 100%"] [TR] [TD][LEFT]Carthage Siculo-Punic Mint 370-325BC Head of Tanit left Horse galloping right Sassari 56-136, Holleman Munten List 106 [/LEFT] [/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] However, I believe that both of these references are taking two or three types and making it to one type. The first coin is what I would define as the first type: Corn Wreathed Head of Tanit-Persephone The second coin is what I would define as the second type: Head of Trittolemo The third type is those whose style, corrosion or wear means you can't tell which it is. Most of these coins are of the last type, as this series is normally G to F... even aVF isn't common. Just a little of what I have researched so far... The next one may be about the mints of the Carthaginians... depends what I research in the time between.[/QUOTE]
