barryg Pillar of the Community United States 5870 Posts	Posted 01/08/2012 9:45 pm I was going through a box of stuff I had packed away before our last move and came across an old coin a co-worker had given to me years ago. It came in an envelope with the following written on it: Ptolemy III Tyre Mint OBV: Head of Zeus Right REV: Eagle on Thunderbolt Right, Club in Field AE16 2.70 gm Pictures are posted below and I'd love some more information about this coin if anybody knows anything. For example: 1. Is this authentic? 2. Is the information on the envelope accurate? 3. What is this coin made of? 4. What condition would this be considered? 5. What is this likely to be worth? 6. Anything else I should know about it? Thanks!

About 1/3 of the way down under the Ptomemy III Tyre Club Series look for Sv711. Yes, Yes, Bronze, F-VF (pretty nice, actually), not a lot - the larger ones are much more popular - $20?, http://www.forumancientcoins.com/do...ac48pto.html My page is puny compared to: http://www.classicalcoins.com/flans1.html Be sure to read all eight pages.
