<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kevin McGonigal, post: 25346079, member: 72790&quot;]I just discovered this post recently while researching a coin I found in a junk box and had a hard time attributing it, namely a silver coin of Amyntas but of a silver drachm which I cannot find, only its tetradrachm version. It is about 18mm and weighs 3.8 grams and seems to have some crystallization on the edges. As far as I can determine the Kings of Galatia only issued silver of tetradrachms of a little bit under 16 grams. The inscription is hard to read but appears to be BASILEOS starting at one o&#039;clock and at about 11 o&#039;clock the end of a word xxxx iou. Is it a legitimate fraction of the tetradrachm or a fake or fantasy coin? Opinions, please.[ATTACH=full]1621011[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]1621013[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
