Ian Posted June 21, 2006 Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 The silver drachm from this region showing a cow with calf suckling tends to be a popular coin with collectors. It is fairly readily available in decent collectable condition and remains relatively cheap for a coin more than 2000 years old. Typically the obverse has a cow and calf, and the name of a magistrate obverse / a stellate pattern and the name of a magistrate reverse. Sometimes there is other symbols obverse. For example the second example shown has an eagle above the cow (obverse). The two shown date circa 220 BC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
