bobbyhelmet Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2838 Posts	Posted 01/11/2013 2:06 pm Some of these were posted earlier but thought I would put them all in together: Ptolemy IV - 46 grams 37mm, around 210BC Diocletian - Year 3 Tetradrachm, 286-287AD Diocletian - Year 3 Tetradrachm, 286-287AD Ptolemy IV? - 31 grams 34mm, around 210BC Probus - Year 6 Tetradrachm, 281-282AD Diocletian - Year 4 Tetradrachm, 287-288AD Ptolemy IV - 47 grams 37mm, around 210BC Carinus - Year 2 Tetradrachm, 284-285AD Maximian - Year 3 Tetradrachm, 288-289AD Perhaps not everybody's cup of tea but quality is not that important to me as long as a coin can be 100% IDed. Bought them out of interest mainly (as I had none of these types) but was considering reselling a few, really rather taken by them, I might just keep them. I certainly think an Alexandrian Tetradrachm tray will be getting added to my coin box I picked all 9 up for £60 / $100 including postage which I think is pretty good going.
