MichaelS Valued Member Netherlands 59 Posts	Posted 08/07/2014 06:47 am Out of interest I will attempt to search with you, but it's very difficult. I've only noticed Geta so far seems to have had a coin on both the obverse and reverse. Good luck. Very interesting. Report this Post to the Staff

echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 08/07/2014 07:44 am Interesting coin, I guessed Septimius Severus but had no idea who the other fellow was. Report this Post to the Staff
Biancasdad Pillar of the Community United States 1045 Posts	Posted 08/07/2014 08:51 am You're welcome Pish. I was just reading up on this fellow Abgar, quit a rich history. I am curious what the final hammer price will be on this example. I think it is quit nice and not your ordinary provincial. Report this Post to the Staff
pishpash Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 3626 Posts	Posted 08/07/2014 08:57 am I am watching it also. It is getting a bit high for me, and I am not sure how good the legends would be after cleaning on the obverse. Report this Post to the Staff
