casata137ec's befores
« on: November 06, 2010, 09:42:09 am »
Morning everyone. I recieved my coins earlier this week, but have not had a chance to post pics. This lot will be a challenge I think. The alexandrian tet will be beautiful (and so far it has been a real pain for me to ID), but the others may be a bit more difficult. the other biggish coin (another Alexandrian I believe, but much older than the tet) has some big crazy iron rust looking encrustations...we shall see!

I think the one on the top left will be interesting!

That is a LRB, I am more interested in the center encrusted one. Who knows what that it!

My guess would be Ptolemaic bronze. BTW, top left is an LRP (late roman potin).

Giving ID help, whether it is requested or not, could disqualify a contestant (although Chris is not in the contest, being the moderator).

Oops! Sorry, did not know that! I hope ID to culture does not count as a real ID. I identified the left one in the second row, but I won't tell anyone. Who else has ideas? Private message, pls.
