[QUOTE="kirispupis, post: 7999811, member: 118780"]Very nice! I don't have any Nabataean coins, but I do have some very modern (poorly made) replicas of ancient coins from Petra. :) One of these days I need to dig them up and post them. Here's a photo I took. [ATTACH=full]1387841[/ATTACH] I won two coins at the last CNG, both from relatively common issuers that I've been after for my "Philip II, Alexander III, and the Age of the Diadochi" story. [ATTACH=full]1387842[/ATTACH] [B]KINGS of MACEDON. Alexander III ‘the Great’. [/B]336-323 BC. AR Drachm (16mm, 4.21 g, 12h). Abydos mint. Struck under Kalas or Demarchos, circa 325-323 BC. Head of Herakles right, wearing lion skin / Zeus Aëtophoros seated left; in left field, Hermes standing left, holding kerykeion; monogram below throne. Price 1503; ADM II Series I. Lightly toned, minor porosity, light scratches. [ATTACH=full]1387844[/ATTACH] [B]KINGS of MACEDON. Alexander III ‘the Great’. [/B]336-323 BC. AR Drachm (16mm, 4.27 g, 12h). Miletos mint.
