Arael Pillar of the Community United States 567 Posts	Posted 08/28/2015 11:58 pm Super excited about my newest coin! It's still in the mail but I love the photos of it, I adore this design, and I think when it arrives it's going to be the new centerpiece of my collection (I'm a sucker for sand patinas). Super excited for this one! I've also always loved the city of Petra, and I'm excited to have a coin from there. Edited by Arael 08/29/2015 12:02 am Report this Post to the Staff

I picked all this up on vcoins, 23 bucks for all 3! Aretas IV, 9 BC-40 AD, Nabatean Kingdom O:Aretas, palm left, H right. R:Shuquailat, Aramaic legend, 16 mm, 2.7g, SNG ANS 1435 Nabatean Kingdom, Malichus II 40 - 70 AD O: jugate laureate and draped bust of Malichus II and Shuqailat II right R: two cornucopias, crossed and filleted, Aramaic legend, "Malichus / Shuqai/lat" in two lines above and one below cornucopia SNG ANS 1444 16x12 mm 3.1g not bad, but not as nice as yours! Nabatean Kingdom, Aretas IV 9 BC -40 AD O: Laureate head of Aretas, H (heth) left R: Crossed cornucopias 14 mm 2.5g this coin was 1 usd on vcoins, and it's a respectable example of the type!
