<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2242928, member: 19463&quot;]I have not added any new ones for a while but still like my Tiny Treasures from my webpage.</p><p><img src="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/tinyset.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>Left row:</p><p>1. Syracuse, Sicily, hemilitron 440-430 BC, .3g</p><p>2. Athens, Attica, tritartemorion (3/4 obol), 393-300 BC, .5g </p><p>3. Therma, Macedon, hemiobol (1/2 obol), 510-480 BC, .3g </p><p>4.. Kolophon, Ionia, tetartemorion (1/4 obol), 430-400 BC, .2g - This coin is unusual in the monogram &#039;TE&#039; on the reverse (over the cicada) indicating the denomination.</p><p>5. Kebren, Troas, tetartemorion (1/4 obol), 400-350 B.C. .2g</p><p><br /></p><p>Right Row:</p><p>1. Phocaea, 1/8? obol&nbsp; </p><p>2. Mylassa, Caria, tetartemorion? (1/4 obol), 5th century BC, .1g </p><p>3. Hektatomnos, Satrap of Caria, tetartemorion 395-377 B.C., .2g </p><p>4. Syracuse, Sicily, Tyrant Gelon, hexas (1/6 litra or 1/300th of the popular dekadrachm), 485-478 BC, .05g? This is the lightest coin I have ever seen but the flaking surface of this specimen makes its weight lower than normal. </p><p>5. Rhegion, Bruttium, hemitatemorion (1/8 obol), 466-415 BC, .1g.</p><p>Thasos, Thrace, hemiobol (1/2 obol), 411-350 BC, .2g</p><p><br /></p><p>Worst of my group is my Athenian tetartemorion.&nbsp; The off center obverse leaves only helmet and makes it ugly but it is one I always wanted.&nbsp; I really want the one half this size (1/8 obol) but have not seen one offered.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]442637[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
