<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ryro, post: 3466124, member: 91461&quot;]Last things first: the style of the portraits as well as the distinctly different looking lettering make me think you could be onto something.</p><p>Shockingly, I can only think of one coin of mine with a Hera portrait. This little lady was completely encrusted when I purchased her in an uncleaned Roman(?) coin lot. I had to use electrolysis to get her out:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]921944[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Argolis, Argos</p><p>Æ Dichalkon. Circa 280-270/60 BCE Head of Hera right, wearing stephane inscribed APΓE / Athena Promachos left. BCD Peloponnesos 1100-4; 3.90g, 18mm, 6h.</p><p><br /></p><p>And to attempt to answer the question; the only thing in common, besides right facing females, is the Stephane. I can only think of seeing one other goddess wearing one (which made iding mine all the more tricky). But that seems to me to be a characteristic of Hera.</p><p>First things last: great coin Doug. Really amazing piece. Congrats![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
