echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 05/06/2019 5:25 pm Coin one is a Roman Republic denairus and the other is an Athena's tet with a scarab. I'm doubtful about that one IMO it's not a genuine example. Report this Post to the Staff

antwerpen2306 Pillar of the Community Belgium 1194 Posts	Posted 05/07/2019 12:12 pm not a bottle cap edge , but a cap edge of a bottle of champagne it is a serrate denarius in bad condition , but can be identified by checking the serrate ones . For the tetradrachme , Echizento is right IMO . To be sure , better photos are needed , also of the scarab (?).These coins have been imitated and the originals have circulated in Egypt ( scarab).albert Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34419 Posts	Posted 05/07/2019 8:30 pm Ok yes Albert you are right, I was thinking that coins with serrated edges were issued by the Seleucids only but that is not true.
