<p>[QUOTE=&quot;7Calbrey, post: 2307522, member: 38412&quot;]Weighing 0.76 g., this silver coin is thought to have been struck in Sidon- Phoenicia during the Phoenician revolt against Persian king Artaxerxes circa 350 B.C. Some theory believes it&#039;s typically Phoenician. Others assume it&#039;s rather Persian. It&#039;s a controversy. The obverse shows a possible Phoenician king holding a knife with his right hand, and a lion(possibly representing the Persian occupant) with his left. The shape of the letter O is between, which is likely to be the Phoenician Semitic letter &quot;Ayn &quot;. Reverse shows a war galley.[ATTACH=full]464611[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]464612[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
