Two of Akko Ptolemais
« on: November 10, 2014, 01:07:34 pm »
I'm not sure if this is right place for Judaean city coins. If not, my apologies. Just show-and-tell, arrived in the mail today...

1. Akko-Ptolemias, Seleucid Era.
AE12 (Denomination D); 126/5 BC.
Obv.: Jugate heads of the Dioskouri r., wearing laurel wreaths, surmounted by stars.
Rev.: ANTOXEΩN TΩN / EN ΠTOΛEMAIΔI IEPAΣ; Cornucopia; Monogram to left.
Reference: Hoover HGC 10 #26; Seyrig 6.

2. Akko-Ptolemais, Phoenicia. Hadrian (117 - 138 AD)
AE19, 6.15g.
Obv.: IMP TRA HADRIANO CAESAR; Draped bust of Hadrian r., laureate.
Rev.: COL PTOL (Colonia Ptolemais); Tyche standing facing, looking left, resting on rudder and holding cornucopia.
Reference: Sofaer pl. 8,142. Kadman 107, Rosenberger I p. 26, #49.
