Znám kolegy – čeho je moc, toho je příliš.

Accept the apology, I really only poured hardened sand mud into the ultrasound, I never expected it in most of the same country.

So thanks and I'm still looking.

In the end, I'm glad I didn't interfere with the really beautiful shiny dark green patina.

But I don't know for sure if I hit.

I won't give it more precisely?

I work better with it when I have it here - I'm looking for it right away - I'm comparing it,  but wildwinds he is not omnipotent. And rather only if someone knew what he already had in his hands-that would help me.

Im not sure

Greetings Colleagues.

      In the end, I'm pleased that this coin will not remain in the dustbin of history.

Initially, I regretted not buying one big silver coin from a sailor from China. So far, I've been most pleased with this one - even when it's in a terrible state.

I'll close the thread I found. This is the story of the coin:

Bronze Antiochus IV CSE PLATE COIN.

  Diademed and radiate head of Antiochus IV r. Border of dots./Zeus' Aegis bearing the head of Medusa. BASILEWS ANTIOXOY QEOY EPIFANOYS. CSE 103 (THIS COIN). ex Arthur Houghton collection. This is an extremely rare coin of Antiochus IV, the infamous Seleucid king who tried to repress the Maccabees in the Hannukah story. Antiochus was especially devoted to the cult of Zeus and attempted to convert the Jewish temple into a temple of Zeus. The Aegis (Zeus' special shield) on the reverse probably depicts an immense gold aegis that the king gave to the people of Athens. It was erected on the Acropolis, but a great wind storm later knocked it down. The image of the so-called "beautiful Medusa" found on Seleucid coins is the distant ancestor of the Medusa head that has become the corporate emblem of the Versacci fashion empire. This is an ex Houghton coll. piece and the plate coin for Coins of the Seleucid Empire, no. 103.
