The Ptolemy coin is from Ake-Ptolemais in Phoenicia but the ruler has eluded me.
I suppose this would be the first Greek in your collection?
I am really pleased you like them, bro.

I would love to hear more about the Ptolemaic Bronze. Like I said I think I can pin down the mint, just not the ruler. The Ptolemaic coinage is soo vast and much of it looks very similar.
MonkeyBean- Stuff like that means alot to me.
Let us all be grateful that we may enjoy these coins and each others company in the short time we all share the planet together.

I haven't really been able to pin down the ruler yet, I'm basing my guess that it's Ptolmey IX by the youthful image only. I was hoping that one of you would be able to confirm it or not.
