Cherronessos Hemidrachm reverse symbols?
« on: May 22, 2010, 04:08:04 pm »
Anyone have any idea what the symbols on this Hemidrachm are? I'm not sure if the top one is a flower or not. I know that somewhere there's a website that list's all the different symbol pairings for these coins but I can't remember where to find it. Anyone know the one I mean? Thanks in advance for any help.

A starburst? McClean 4107 looks close.

Maybe you mean this site:
http://bpmurphy.ancients.info/chersonese/Cherronesos.htm

Best match to your coin seems to be pellet/star, Weber 2417, Winterthur 1194.

Something is determined not to let me attribute this one. I keep trying the link that you provided Will but it just refuses to load. Not sure if it's just my computer or what. Thank you anyway though, I will keep trying it.
