Ruger9a Valued Member United States 325 Posts	Posted 04/27/2021 08:35 am I think ths coin is a Greek coin but I'm not sure as I cannot find it. It's only 15mm and weights only 2.6 grams. Report this Post to the Staff

Gainn Valued Member United Kingdom 218 Posts	Posted 04/27/2021 09:05 am ^ link not working (for me anyway) Prusias II AE16? I think the caduceus reverse is unusual but I do remember seeing one like that. Edit: links to that site remove the page detail for some reason.

Ruger9a Valued Member United States 325 Posts	Posted 04/27/2021 09:40 am Thanks @Bob L, but the link doesn't work. THANKS @Gainn, that's the exact coin! Report this Post to the Staff
Gainn Valued Member United Kingdom 218 Posts	Posted 04/27/2021 10:39 am Not sure why it parses the individual page out of the link, but you can at least manually type it from the screenie. It's a nice coin and if legit (other people would need to weigh in on that, I'm just good at remembering odd shapes.) then seemingly quite rare. Report this Post to the Staff
Ruger9a Valued Member United States 325 Posts	Posted 04/27/2021 7:14 pm Wow, I just noticed the "Very rare type" statement on the page above. I don't know what that equates to, but I guess I did good buying this coin back in 1999! Report this Post to the Staff
Gainn Valued Member United Kingdom 218 Posts	Posted 04/27/2021 8:23 pm Quote: I don't know what that equates to Me either, but it usually means something good. That sale was in 2005 so I'd assume it's worth more now unless loads more of them were found. And the only other reference to it I could find was this in the British Museum.. www.britishmuseum.org/collection/object/C_BNK-G-441 (doesn't like that link either) Edited by Gainn 04/27/2021 8:26 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Ruger9a Valued Member United States 325 Posts	Posted 04/28/2021 10:05 am Thanks for the information @Gainn ! I didn't have much luck finding one on line either. It's always good to hear that your original investment has increased!!! Report this Post to the Staff
