<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 7888884, member: 26302"]The Bostra issue is one of my favorite coins. It intentionally, (I believe), shows a Bactrian camel to show the world it was an endpoint of the Silk Road. The Spice Road ran through Bostra, and evidently so did the SIlk Road, and then merchants merged products from both to go on to Rome. Fascinating issue, I own both face left and face right examples, and pick up others at times. I actually first bought it to go with my Silk Road collection.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
