Made a new thread since the other was getting too long.

Latest addition to my gallery is a rare Tetradrachm of Macrianus

Hi Matt,

Thanks for sharing.

Out of curiosity, why do you say Indi-greek not Indo-Greek?

Also, how did you learn it was an imitation. I have quite a few Hermaios drachms and they look very similar to your coin.

Thanks!

The person I got it from knows them a bit well, much more then I do.

Also, this helped.

Thanks.

From what I have now read, most likely the ones I own are imitations too.

Latest addition is a Gallienus Tetradrachm with what seems like a higher silver content than usual? ???

Nice.

I like these types.

I saw an exceptional drachm of Shahpur I at auction recently (with fire altar reverse) but forgot to bid. It is on my wish list.
