[QUOTE="Pavlos, post: 4572154, member: 96635"]Thank you Ryro, and thanks for sharing your cool shield coin. The Seleukids have quite some shield coins, so perhaps you should look into that. I am still jealous on your Seleukos I one :rolleyes: I love that type, I hope to get one some day, very cool coin. Wonderful coin [USER=99412]@PeteB[/USER], the portrait of your Megas is much younger. Mine is in his mid adulthood. What a rarity and nice to see that coin again, the young portrait is wonderful and not often seen. I saw [USER=80556]@David@PCC[/USER] joked about the "Melon" thing already hehe. It is "Molon" ;) Great coin [USER=75496]@Carl Wilmont[/USER], I need to get a proper Lifetime issue Alexander tetradrachm some day. He was indeed, the greatest Megas. Totally forgot about that Megas, I am not so familiar with the Kushan and Indo-Greek kingdom. Made me want to read more about them. Thank you for sharing and indeed very clearly 'Megas' can be read. Thank you for sharing these coins as well [USER=56859]@TIF[/USER], beautiful photographs of coins I am quite unfamiliar about. Interesting style these Kushan coins, doesn't really look like they were influenced that much by Hellenism. Thank you [USER=97383]@Al Kowsky[/USER] :) I enjoy the sharpness and relief on coins. In hand it looks even more beautiful. Thanks David, I like the style as well. If I buy a tetradrachm from the Megas, it atleast has to look like a Megas.[/QUOTE]
