Sap Moderator Australia 16844 Posts	Posted 06/20/2013 05:54 am The seller's description of the first ebay link is "Ionia, Milet, diobol". Ionia is a region of what is now western Turkey. "Milet" is the way this seller spells "Miletus" or "Miletos", a now-ruined city on the Ionian coast. "Diobol" is the denomination. Click here for the Wildwinds Miletus page, then scroll down to the coin labelled "SNGCop 948". That's pretty close to this coin. It dates from roughly 400 BC, plus or minus a century. The seller has not provided any info on the second coin; presumably, they don't know anything about it, either. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
