<p>[QUOTE=&quot;7Calbrey, post: 2634317, member: 38412&quot;]Little had been said about sacred stones of ancient times. So far we know about the Omphalos that figures with Apollo on reverse of ancient Greek coins. We also remember Phoenix on the sacred stone during the Roman Constantine Dynasty. Also Emperor Elagabalus was familiar with the&nbsp; sacred stone of Emesa. The following coin seems to have the sacred stone of Zeus on reverse. It&#039;s within a temple on reverse of a bronze coin struck under Emperor Trajan. I wonder if all these sacred stones are the same one which was transmitted through ages from a Dynasty to another. The coin weighs 13 g.</p><p>Seleucia and Pieria- BMC 40&nbsp; - SNG Cop 404. Thanks for yous comments.[ATTACH=full]580172[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]580174[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
