Help on a Provincial
« on: December 07, 2021, 01:53:03 pm »
Picked this one up.  It is 29mm and 17.8g.

Not sure if the reverse is a wolf or some other animal, though I believe there is two of them.  I see at least 5 legs.

Thanks for any hints you can give me.

Dear Blayne, PeteB, and Board,

Congratulations, Blayne, on bagging this rare and interesting provincial type from Anazarbus (for Severus Alexander as Pete correctly suspected)!

Hope this helps!


Best regards,

Hey Thanks Mark and Pete.  Although a bit rough, I am happy with it.   I had just started looking through Wildwinds for provincials of Severus Alexander based on Pete's suggestion but you were quicker Mark.

Thanks again.
