[QUOTE="NewStyleKing, post: 6682955, member: 106483"]I converted a webpage to a jpeg and voila! These 2 books are amazing and controversial and are a must. I cannot believe there are so few interested in Asia Minor with its bickering power politics and little empires, it's interactions with the Romans and the Ptolemies, Galatian Celts etc. There are some fantastic coins that are not too expensive. Silver Antiochus Vll and Phillip Philly type coins can be cheaply bought and the AE's are plentiful. The Philiteria coins of Pergamum are treated in the books but there needs to be a modern update on them. The cistaphores are generally cheap and very controversial, whilst some Bithynian tets can be relatively cheap and controversial. Nothing gets more beautiful than the asia minor stephanophores and the coinages of the great transformation from civic Alexanders to truly civic identity coins. I am truly "only a poor man" but at least have a Myrhina and a Kyme. Also I think that I prefer reading to actually collecting so these books Ideal for me.

I am curious to see more Pergamon coins if people have them and are willing to share them :shame:[/QUOTE][/QUOTE]
