Kamnaskires Pillar of the Community United States 7066 Posts	Posted 04/29/2023 4:46 pm I love coins with imagery that includes the tools for making coins. In fact I once started a thread for such coins. This one depicts Hephaistos/Vulcan with tongs behind his head, radiate facing bust of Helios on the reverse. Malaka, Iberia, 2nd century BC. Neat coin.
