<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Gao, post: 651052, member: 19409&quot;]The text is there, but it&#039;s very hard to read.&nbsp; It&#039;s all the lumpy stuff above and to the right of the bust.&nbsp; It&#039;s largely off the flan (it&#039;s pretty common for ancient coins to be struck off center), and I&#039;m having a lot of trouble making anything out of it.</p><p><br /></p><p>In case it wasn&#039;t clear, by &quot;delta,&quot; I meant the Greek letter delta, which is a triangle.&nbsp; I can&#039;t quite tell from the picture if it&#039;s an A with stubby legs or a delta with serifs.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In any case, I suppose you want to know what it&#039;s worth, given the forum you posted this in.&nbsp; Unfortunately, Alexandian tetradrachms of this era are pretty common, and yours is a bit overcleaned, and given the poor legend on the obverse, there&#039;s a good chance we won&#039;t be able to identify it more specifically, which will hurt the value a bit.&nbsp; I wouldn&#039;t expect to be able to get more than $10 or so from it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
