<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GinoLR, post: 26055970, member: 128351&quot;]I already posted these two coins two years ago as a reply. I&#039;d like to repost them now as a thread, in case somebody could tell me more about them.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>1) a fourrée</b></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://www.cointalk.com/attachments/siglos-2-jpg.1560408/" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>Achemenid Empire, siglos. AR (fourrée) 14-15.5 mm, 4.83 g</p><p>Obv.: Persian king or hero in kneeling-running stance right, holding (...) and bow</p><p>Rev.: Irregular punch? </p><p>Carradice type IV? 4th c. BC</p><p><br /></p><p>I wonder if the reverse is just an irregular punch or if it is something else...</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><b>2) an imitative (?) siglos</b></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://www.cointalk.com/attachments/siglos-3-jpg.1560409/" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>Imitation of Achemenid siglos. Debased AR, 14-16 mm, 3.97 g</p><p><br /></p><p>Obv.: Persian king or hero in kneeling-running stance right, holding spear pointing diagonally downwards and bow.</p><p>Rev.: Schematic Persian king or hero? </p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s not bronze, but it seems to be a much debased silver. I don&#039;t know what it is, I&#039;ve never seen a coin like this one. If somebody knows... many thanks in advance![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
