Q."Would this be worth the price I paid?" A. For sure! I paid $177 shipped, for mine in similar condition. I have to reshoot my Thasos Tet, I noticed distortion in the pic when it scaled down in this thread... https://goccf.com/t/131039 |

Thasos, Thrace, Silver Tetradrachm Obv:â€" Head of a youthful Dionysos to right, wearing elaborate ivy wreath with leaves and berries Rev:â€" HRAKLEOVS SWTEROS, Youthful Herakles, nude but for drapery over his shoulder and let arm, standing facing, his head to left, holding a club in his right hand and resting his left at his waist; QASIWN in exergue. MH monogram Minted in Thasos, Thrace. After 148 B.C. Reference:â€" SNG Cop.1040  Martin |

One of our members Dionysos (batman) has probably the greatest example of this coin type I have ever seen, save the drool for that one. I almost died when I saw it.
