<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Curtis, post: 6288762, member: 26430&quot;][USER=106483]@NewStyleKing[/USER] thanks so much for helping me clear up my confusion regarding the post-Sullan coinage! I am looking forward to learning more of the newer dating, it&#039;s making a lot more sense to me now. Only having modest familiarity with the series, I may have had one or two long ago &amp; not realized it, so I may even need to update my archive of sold coins with corrections (e.g. a <a href="https://conservatoricoins.com/gmedia/new_style_athens_tetradrachm_619b-png/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://conservatoricoins.com/gmedia/new_style_athens_tetradrachm_619b-png/" rel="nofollow">Thompson 619b</a>, which I had as 119-118BC; and a <a href="https://conservatoricoins.com/gmedia/new-style-athens-tetradrachm-785b-jpg/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://conservatoricoins.com/gmedia/new-style-athens-tetradrachm-785b-jpg/" rel="nofollow">Thompson 785b</a>, which I notice I already corrected from Gitbud-Naumann&#039;s 137/6 BC to 107/6BC, lol).</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s the only other &quot;New Style&quot; in currently in my collection. I got it from HJB 208. It was noted as Ex-Tom Cederlind, but I also managed to track down two more links in the pedigree to M&amp;M (2014) &amp; Gorny (1994):</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1249217[/ATTACH]</p><p><a href="https://vimeo.com/344652816" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://vimeo.com/344652816" rel="nofollow">Here&#039;s their coin-in-hand video</a> on Vimeo (naturally, more impressive that way, also their model&#039;s fingernails look better than mine!).</p><blockquote><p><b><br /></b></p><p><b>Attica, Athens. &quot;New Style Coinage&quot; AR Tetradrachm</b> (16.73g, 32mm, 6h).
