Didn't someone mention Zeugitana for Z? Since that probably takes the least twisting and turning from the coins before 1600 I have, here one of mine:   AE 18 from Zeugitana, minted in Sardinia (~300BC to 264BC) - SNG Milano#409+ Obverse: Head of Tanit left, wreathed with corn, wearing ear-ring and necklace Reverse: Head and neck of horse right, mark before neck |

Nice and clear coin 'pishpash' - seems you rushed the upload.  Let me ask one question (out of curiosity) though: which coin types does the site (or you) differentiate? |

What do you mean, I "rushed the upload"?
There are several templates available on the site. I think you can make your own, but I haven't looked into it yet. Main thing for me at the moment is to get a record of the collection on line.

Did notice that the upload of that first coin was dated today. Let me also add two more (different types), not very good - if someone else shows those types, I'll remove them.   Italian issue (1st half of 3rd century BC); O: Palm tree / R: Horse right, looking back - SNG Milano#93-96   Sicilian issue (late 4th to early 3rd century BC); O: Tanit / R: Palm tree behind horse standing right - SNG Milano#374-406 |

Wow Marti, that's a nice Carthage coin...both sides.
Anoob's billon is a great coin too. You don't see those around often. I got my eyes open though.
Thanks for the thread Val.

Thanks for the thanks, Echizento! Sorry I haven't been active towards the end of it. It is a busy time of year. Glad so many took part in it to make it what it was. I enjoyed it too...
