<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 7936289, member: 19463&quot;]My first show QPO and a stork with a large chunk missing from the obverse die. My staters come from the period called &#039;dumpy&#039; in the literature. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]1372855[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>On the second, the stork moves to the other side and we have QPOT.&nbsp; The reverse is quite off center but that has little effect on these later, thicker flans.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1372856[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Here the reverse is an incuse eagle and the obverse legend runs right to left TOPQ.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1372857[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>My last &#039;dumpy&#039; stater came after the end of the incuse period and shows an eagle perched on a deer head.&nbsp; The legend is QPO.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1372858[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>A 1/6 stater adds a Pegasos reverse</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1372864[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>A trihemiobol? (0.9g) has a barley grain with a star, thundebolt and eagle on column on the reverse.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1372865[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>This later (330-299 BC) stater was purchased as a fourree from NFA in 1990 but I believe it is a victim of harsh removal of horn silver that was caked on the right side of the devices. It was not the only low end coin I bought from NFA with ID issues.&nbsp; They were not fond of handling coins in the $100 bracket.&nbsp; The obverse shows Apollo.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1372866[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
