Coin Addict Valued Member United States 110 Posts	Posted 12/08/2012 9:59 pm I haven't gotten 50 quality posts so I don't know if the Fourm Mom will allow this link to an active ebay listing for Ptolemy of Kingdom. I'm going to try and we'll see. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ptolemy-of-...em3f1fbd1176 What's this coin worth? I'm being lazy and not digging into the literature, which is still cumbersome for this freshly bitten ancient coin collector. Thanks everyone. I'm having a blast and I'll never look a modern coin in the same way again. I still get excited about rare and unusual coins from colonial to the latest strike, so I've just branched out.

Ancientnoob Pillar of the Community United States 5155 Posts	Posted 12/08/2012 10:51 pm You know, I am not an expert but for some reason it looked odd to me too. I can't put my finger on it, over cleaned maybe and a poor photo? Report this Post to the Staff
Coin Addict Valued Member United States 110 Posts	Posted 12/09/2012 6:39 pm Thanks everyone. The reverse scared me, it didn't match the obverse in quality. Perhaps that's the over cleaning mentioned by many. I'm only watching it not bidding. I think one guy will get it at the current bid. Report this Post to the Staff
