Topcat7 Pillar of the Community 1121 Posts	Posted 12/09/2014 5:20 pm P.P. - The closest 'attribution' I have been able to come up with for your coins is . . . . . . Roman Republican Coins of a Student and his Mentor Triens circa 217-215, Ã† 51.29 g. Diademed female head right; behind, four pellets. Rev. Hercules fighting centaur, holding his hair in l. hand and club in r.; before, four pellets. Sydenham 93. Crawford 39/1. I hope this helps. Report this Post to the Staff

pishpash Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 3626 Posts	Posted 12/09/2014 7:12 pm All the examples of the coin that TC mentioned seem to be the same, no variations. I can see possibly one pellet on the obverse and possibly two on the reverse. Chrsmat, now try and "un-see" the centaur! Report this Post to the Staff
