<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John Anthony, post: 2084189, member: 42773&quot;]Absolutely great coin, Randy - I would not have left it in the shop either. This is the Imperial version of a type minted in Bostra with Greek legends, the first official coinage of <i>Provincia Arabia</i>. The Bostran versions came in drachm and tridrachm denominations.</p><p><br /></p><p>The feature to look for on these coins is a well-struck and detailed camel, and yours has just that, with a nice little hump. Great find!</p><p><br /></p><p>Now find the sestertius version - it&#039;s quite rare in any grade.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
