<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 689640, member: 19463"]Mine is not as old (171-160 BC) but will serve as an example of the other nickel type (Panther) available. This is Agathokles but matching coins exist with the name of his brother Pantaleon. I have no idea where these stood in value compared to the silver coins but the workmanship suggests that the silver was higher and bronzes lower. They are not particularly rare but most seen have terrible surfaces and low price guarantees an ugly coin. </p><p><img src="http://www.pbase.com/image/117333323.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
