Very nice. An unusual one for sure.

Very nice with strong Greek overtones, but beware you are venturing close to the dark side... next you'll want a denarius!

interesting coin, with an almost Hellenistic reverse portrait.

I really like it!!! I find the addtion of the club and eagle to the obv. very interesting! Its almost as if the obv. and rev. has been switched. I wonder what they were trying to say with this style Question
