Full reference for Seleucus IV serrated AE22
« on: September 20, 2013, 10:27:55 am »
Hi all,

I recently bought another serrated Seleucid coin. I would appreciate if someone could give me a full reference including the greek letters on the reverse.

Ref (from Forvm's serrated page):
Seleucus IV, 187 - 175 BC,  Apollo long hair, laur & diad, Apollo leaning on tripod, examining arrow, 22mm

Spaer, 122, SGCV II 6968, Hoover HGC9, 584

Dealers photos are attached. This coin is a gem in hand. Nicely centered, serrations are quite clear. I have been touching it all day :-)

Thanks!
Tjaart
