<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 1919867, member: 19463"]Is there a reason we only see one side of the coin? The style is certainly not contemporary Ptolemaic Egyptian so the idea of it being Libyan and possibly later than the original is quite strong. Seeing the reverse and having weights and measurements might help but none of us here are skilled in local copies. We can tell you what the coin is not (original to the place and time of the type and inscription) but telling what it is will be much more difficult.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
