january1may Pillar of the Community Russian Federation 5177 Posts	Posted 12/24/2014 11:54 pm I see enough legend on the left side of your coin to be reasonably sure that it does indeed say Raggodeme. No idea who that person is though (all references I see are to coins, though it's apparently a female). Report this Post to the Staff

Here is the coin with both sides: Drachm from Tabae in early imperial times - BMC#20(obv)/17(rev) Had looked at Tabae before but couldn't make sense of the reverse but when I saw a coin yesterday it made sense. Went into the text of BMC and nailed it down (the plates of the copy of BMC on the net are unfortunately badly copied). Report this Post to the Staff

Knowing what to look for found a clearer example without countermark on the net -> http://www.sixbid.com/browse.html?a...&lot=1197427 That makes clear that the countermark was applied on the right image there (can see the palm branch on mine). And while the two starting chars are missing on mine, it is the same legend apart from the 'K', which is missing on mine. After a closer look, the bottom of my right image is at 1:30 o'clock.
