Mithradates II Tet
« on: January 15, 2019, 04:52:44 pm »
Visited the NYINC over the weekend and picked up a Mithradates II tetradrachm (Sellwood 24.5), a type I’ve been wanting for a while.

Really pleasant surprise that I found one! I wasn’t really expecting I’d get one of these for a while.

What a find! To me it looks almost uncirculated.  Congratulations,
