Just added 13 more to my
gallery. There was no rhyme
nor reason for the
additions, they were just next in line for
attribution!
included in the selection are:
1 little coin from
Athens with a nice
bust of
Athena1 little
incuse w/lion
1 nifty nab from an uncleaned lot
1
Gordian III that may not be pretty, but if you saw what it came from you would be as happy as I was with it! lol
1
Diocletian tet from
Alexandria1
Maximianus Herculius tet from
Alexandria2
Constantine I, one of which is a Divus
Constantius I and the other is a pretty
votive altar3
Elagabalus bronze, one of which is a pretty
Antioch SC, another is a tet from
Antioch and the third is a little semi attributed coin from Philidelphia
1 little
Leo I w/legible
legendand a
Seleucid that
had been giving me fits for ages now, but I think I have it attributed correctly now (
had to go old school and just simply page through
BMC: The
Seleucid Kings of
Syria until I found a match)
Enjoy, more to come,
Chris
PS I try to attribute these myself and when I cannot do it on my own I'll post here for ID
help. Generally I spend about an hour
per coin on the
average and try to find more than one reference, sometimes this hour takes weeks or months, somtimes the "hour" takes 15 minutes. The point is, I, like most others here do their best and spend a
ton of time trying to make sure that the coin posted is correctly attributed. All we ask is a little "confirmation" that our efforts are not for nothing. They may not be the best coins in the
gallery, but we do appreciate a little post here and there saying nothing more than "thanks for the effort"!
Now to get down from my high
horse...
