<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bing, post: 3648383, member: 44132&quot;]As I stated in the last thread I started, I won a coin in the latest FSR auction.&nbsp; I had only purchased a couple of coins this entire year.&nbsp; However, that just seemed to whet my appetite.&nbsp; I have since purchased two Greek coins.&nbsp; This first coin is from Warren Esty, a well known and respected contributor to CT.&nbsp; I fell &quot;in love&quot; with it from the moment I saw it on Warren&#039;s site, Augustus Coins (check his site out - some nice coins at reasonable prices imho).&nbsp; Although not rare, one does not see many of these come up for sale or auction.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]979829[/ATTACH]</p><p>NAGIDOS in CILICIA</p><p>AR Stater</p><p>OBVERSE:&nbsp; Aphrodite seated left, holding patera over altar, crowned by Eros flying right above, rose and bud in left field, mouse under chair</p><p>REVERSE:&nbsp; NAΓIΔIKON, Dionysos, loins draped (long), standing left, holding bunch of grapes and thyrsos.
