First up, a Drachm, Kolophon Mint. Price 1809. Obverse is off center, but otherwise this is a nice one. Posthumous issue, 310-301 BC.

Second, an Alexander bronze. Star above with delta below, but wildwinds doesn't have a star above delta below example listed, so not entirely sure what Price number this would be, 272 maybe. This would appear to be a lifetime issue, unknown mint. Still entombed in plastic.

Excellent pick-up's. Congrats!

Perhaps Price 277 for the second?:

Congrats, two super coins. The detail on the club and quiver coin is excellent. I can see why it was graded at choice EF. I just finished a section on the coin reference book I'm writing on coins of Alexander just a few minutes ago. Coincidence to see these two just now.
