Its from a real turning point in ancient history. Its pretty much one of the last coins minted by the free Macedonians. Perseus was eventually defeated by the Romans and Macedon was annexed divided and eventually made the province of Macedonia. Very cool coins and even better at a bargain.

chrsmat71 Pillar of the Community United States 4966 Posts	Posted 09/26/2014 10:24 pm including shipping, these coins were 58 dollars. if you go hunting specifically for these coins (and can find them), and want them in a hurry, you'll pay much more. but it's pretty easy to find affordable ancient coins like these if you keep an eye open for good deals. even if you don't want to spend the time searching (or know what to look for exactly), 58 bucks at vcoins can score you something pretty nice.
