<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 1093242, member: 26302"]So the tetradrachms in the east were made to compete with Parthian Tets, or were the locals just used to that denomination from the Greeks? I have some Parthian Tets, one Sassanid one, (Artishir), and a few Roman provincial ones. I was just wondering the purpose of the denomination. I also have some Athenian Tets, were these coins effectively made on those weight standards?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
