Archraz Pillar of the Community United States 3499 Posts	Posted 03/17/2016 2:59 pm Hi everyone, I have long been a collector of Indian coins, but I have yet to really dive into the realm of Indo-Greek ancients. Does anyone have any recommended sites or texts on this subject? For instance, where could I be able to identify a coin of this ilk? I was not able to find much on wildwinds (pardon the poor scans): Report this Post to the Staff

echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 03/17/2016 3:22 pm A drachm of Apollodotos II 110-80 BC. I would recommend Sear's Greek Coins and Their Value. You can also find them on Coin India. http://coinindia.com/ Report this Post to the Staff

Finn235 Pillar of the Community United States 6130 Posts	Posted 03/17/2016 4:39 pm Wildwinds does have all of these coins, but they are buried under Greek > Coins by City, State, or Ruler > Select your ruler from the kings list. It's not as easy to navigate as the Roman section. Report this Post to the Staff

Archraz Pillar of the Community United States 3499 Posts	Posted 03/19/2016 10:09 pm Thanks for the help, links, and images, everyone! I really do appreciate it. Also, I have really no idea what a drachm of this ilk might be worth in, say, Fine condition (which I believe my example to be)? Does anyone have a guess? Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff
