<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ancientnut, post: 2150806, member: 73212&quot;]I consigned 7 coins to CNG 99 because I felt like they didn&#039;t belong in my collection anymore. I let 5 of them go, but these two were going too cheaply during the sale yesterday and I bought them back. They are too nice to part with and I don&#039;t regret it.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;<a href="http://s95.photobucket.com/user/ancientnut/media/22A%20Syracuse_zpsdkehjwcd.jpg.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://s95.photobucket.com/user/ancientnut/media/22A%20Syracuse_zpsdkehjwcd.jpg.html" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l155/ancientnut/22A%20Syracuse_zpsdkehjwcd.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p><br /></p><p>Syracuse, Sicily AR tetradrachm, c 478-475 BC, 24mm, 17.40 g, 5h.
