This one of several coins that I acquired today. Thoughts? Thanks!    Seleukid Kingdom. Antiochos VII Euergetes. Silver Tetradrachm (14.28 g), 138-129 BC. Tyre, SE 179 (134/3 BC). Diademed and draped bust of Antiochos VII right. Reverse: BAΣIΛEΩΣ ANTIOXOY, eagle standing left on prow left, palm branch over far wing; in left field, A/PE above club surmounted by monogram of Tyre; in right field, monogram above date (ΘOP); between legs, monogram. SC 2109.7a; HGC 9, 1074. Boldly struck in high relief and lightly toned. Choice Very Fine. IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

I think I fixed the picture. Is it still showing the incorrect coin? Thanks for all of your input as always Bob.

I'm still seeing Antiochos IX Eusebes Philopator with Zeus seated, holding Nike. We should be seeing Antiochos VII Euergetes with eagle facing left.

I think I finally got it. Tried to stuff too much info in the photo name. Let me know and thanks to all for sharing your thoughts.
