<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John Anthony, post: 3454383, member: 42773&quot;]This is super, thank you Nemo! Your quote from Kroll about the position of the ethnic as a diagnostic clinches it...</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot; ...the changed position of the alpha on the coins’ reverses. On all earlier owl tetradrachms (Figs. 2, 4) the ΑΘΕ ethnic begins higher, at the side of the owl’s head, with the alpha’s left diagonal touching the head at eye level. On the pi-style owls, the alpha is positioned below the head, its left diagonal wedged in the notch where the head meets the body,15 thus permitting every pi-style tetradrachm to be distinguished from earlier specimens of the same denomination instantaneously.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>My coin clearly exhibits this placement, not to mention that the flan is quite thick and you can even see the folds along the edge...</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]918294[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
