<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John Anthony, post: 2211399, member: 42773&quot;]Those are indeed great coins, Cyrrhus, but not all Apameias are created equal. The coin with elephant is the Apameia of Seleucis and Pieria, Syria. Apameia ad Maeandrum was founded by Antiochus I, named after his mother Apama. Apamea Syria was founded by Seleucus I, named after his wife, Apama. (It was a fortress at which he stabled 500 elephants!)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
