Athens tetradrachm67 viewsJeweler's Silver Athenian Tetradrachm
HERE IS AN INTERESTING ATHENIAN TETRADRACHM. IT IS MADE FOR USE IN JEWELRY. MADE OF .925 SILVER IT IS A NICER EXAMPLE FOR A BLACK CABINET COLLECTION OR EVEN FOR A JEWELER.


THE COIN IS 14.45 GMS AND 25MM WIDE AND 0.5 MM THICK. SO IT IS A VERY GOOD REPLICATION OF ONE OF HISTORIES MOST FAMOUS AND ENDURING COINAGE.

Personally I think it is a pretty crappy "replication of one of histories (sic) most famous and enduring coins." But there you have it, a bargain at $100 ?... I thnk not!
