[QUOTE="Justin Lee, post: 4377748, member: 87404"]Very cool coin and such cool history! I also don't have an example like your's, so like RY-guy I'll share an Augustus from the area... [IMG]https://iomegacollectionhome.files.wordpress.com/2019/03/collagemaker_20190107_210320042.jpg[/IMG] [SIZE=3][B]Augustus, Ruled 27 BC-14 AD AE30, Syria, Antioch Mint[/B] Obverse: IMP•AVGVST• – TR•POT, laureate bust of Augustus right. Reverse: Large SC within laurel-wreath of eight leaves fastened at top with pellet, between inner and outer borders. Notes: Reverse is slightly double-struck, which is typical of this early issue (per Butcher, [I]Coinage in Roman Syria[/I]). References: RPC I 4247, McAlee 206b Size: 30mm, 18.0g[/SIZE][/QUOTE]
