 ..its so interesting to see how people value your coin... Factoid....The Phoenicians where the first peoples known to have developed the seafaring vessel. There are numerous account from Pharaonic Egypt about the importation of wood and precious metals in order to equip the Pharaoh. The Phoenicians are also the first to travel beyond the pillars of Hercules, bring tails of the lands along the westernmost coast of Africa. A thousand year before the founding of Rome. They are also credited with the founding of colonies like Carthage and Utica among many others, thousands of miles from the homeland.

Quote: its so interesting to see how people value your coin It is - I fear a few earlier super bargains have caused a bit of low-balling recently though. Windchilds Sol with whip was a beauty but most people held back and I fear I may have on your Phoenician, looking forward to finding out.

I wonder... Could the difference in price be due to my horrible macro photography skills?

Also for those who may not know the Phoenicians also invented the alphabet as we know it in the west. The term "phoenetic" comes from these people. They are also referred to in the Old testamentas the........Caananites!
