These is the first of four coins that I have bought to add to my collection! They added up to about $180 total. But boy, am I a happy guy!

Macrinus & Diadumenian AE26 Pentassarion of Markianopolis

Obv: AVT K M OΠEΛ CEV MAKPEINOC K M OPE ANTΩNEINOC, bust of Macrinus, draped and laureate facing bare head of Diadumenian
Rev: VΠ ΠONTIANOV MAPKIANOΠOLEITΩN, Apollo standing facing, head right, naked, holding raised hand & bow, snake coiled around tree before, E to left

I've seen this coin before. In fact, I bid on this and probably the othe coins you purchsed. I think this is from one of my favorite dealers out of Great Britain. Good eye. I love the coin.
