[QUOTE="philologus_1, post: 25474522, member: 92212"]Two questions: I just realized that (per Seleucid Coins Online) my collection's representative coin for Antiochus XII doesn't include his portrait. But instead it sports a portrait of Antiochus XI. This is contrary to Hoover's HGC and also contrary to the published print edition of Seleucid Coins, which both cite my coin type's portrait as Antiochus XII. Moreover, (again per SC[B][U]O[/U][/B]), it seems there are no coins which are attributed as having an Antiochus XII portrait. See below snip from SC[U]O[/U]'s search-by-portrait list which jumps from XI to XIII. [ATTACH=full]1630562[/ATTACH] [B][COLOR=#b30000]Is this an SCO error, or has the identity of the portrait been re-attributed due to recent scholarship?[/COLOR][/B] Here is my coin... followed by the numismatic data from the published Seleucid Coins volume... based on my assessment that it is SC_2477... (Hoover 1331)... [B][COLOR=#b30000]Is this attribution correct?[/COLOR][/B] [ATTACH=full]1630563[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1630564[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
