Indian1 Pillar of the Community United States 3640 Posts	Posted 11/01/2010 7:47 pm Found this today in a batch of world coins. 9.3 grams, 26 m.m. No clue on ancients etc. (if it even is one) Images are scans and color of coin in hand is a pewter like tone. Thanks for any help. http://i1020.photobucket.com/albums...1/AncRev.jpg http://i1020.photobucket.com/albums...1/AncObv.jpg Report this Post to the Staff

bobbyhelmet Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2838 Posts	Posted 11/01/2010 8:48 pm Certainly is! I found about 10 on ebay all going for about Â£125GBP - they were all better quality but still a very nice find amongst random world coins. Report this Post to the Staff
