tetradrachms. However labeled, their size and purity are testament
to the prosperity of the Boii on the eve of Roman domination of the
region. The present type, associated with the beginning of the
series, displays an obverse copied from the denarii of Q. Fufius
Kalenus and Mucius Cordus (Crawford 403/1).

The pellets (“eyes”) inside the cursive m confirm that this apparently planchet, bold VF $120 - 150

The first 3 letters of the Arabic word compare to the first 3 letters of
the mint name Adhra’at (for Deraa) as it appears on the post-reform
Umayyad fulus of that mint. It seems plausible that despite the
different final 2 letters, the word is a form of the city name Dar’at
without the ‘ayn, perhaps an obsolete adverbial spelling. We would
be interested in any reference to a published example of this type.

An important example, heavier than all the 150+ specimens listed
by Pottier for all six classes, yet clearly a Syrian imitation and
neither a standard Byzantine follis nor an imitation from elsewhere,
confirmed by the die-match to the specimen published by Pottier.
It is likely that the local mints producing there imitative types used
whatever blanks or worn-out coins they could find.

Antioch was conquered by the Persian armies in October 610 and
held for nearly 19 years, until the summer of 629. Coins were struck
at their established mint, presumably Antioch (Theoupolis), imitating
contemporary Byzantine copper coins, mostly commonly types of
Heraclius & Constantine, but also some earlier types of Justin II &
Sophia, Maurice Tiberius and Phocus. They bear regnal years that 227. UMAYYAD: AE fals (2.29g), al-Rayy, AH121, A-204, Miles-32

undoubtedly they were meager attempts to have a “year”, as
widespread die matches prove that the “years” are utterly
inaccurate. The group here represents only the issues imitating
types of Heraclius.

This is clearly a purely Abbasid issue, even though the Banijurd
ruler Muhammad b. Ahmad was presumably in charge. Until now,
the latest Banijurid dirham known to us of pure Abbasid style is
dated AH273. Since the name of the local ruler could appear on
either obverse or reverse at this time, it is possible that mis-matched
obverse & reverse dies were used for this piece, thus omitting the
name of Muhammad b. Ahmad.

Balog listed this as an issue of the Bahri Mamluks during the reign
of Aybak, which is technically correct, but as it cites only his nominal
Ayyubid overlord, without mentioning Aybak, it seems more
appropriate to classify it as Ayyubid.
Both attributions are acceptable.

Although clearly a coin of Byzantine style, the lack of any Christian
motifs and the position of the praying figure strongly suggest a

epigraphic issue retains the normal Christian figures (A-1192).

The State of Chu was an ancient Chinese state in the Yangtze
valley during the Zhou Dynasty. Originally Chu was considered
a viscounty but, starting from King Wu in the early 8th century BC,
the rulers of Chu declared themselves kings on an equal footing
with the Zhou rulers. Originally known as Jing and then as Jingchu,
Chu occupied vast areas of land at its height, including most of the
present-day provinces of Hubei and Hunan, along with parts of
Chongqing, Guizhou, Henan, Anhui, Jiangxi, Jiangsu, Zhejiang,
and Shanghai.
The hao in the reverse inscription shi hao probably refers to ten
ant nose type coins. These spades are thick and robust with
well developed rims all the way around, with a large round
hole in the top. 727. WARRING STATES: Anonmyous, 400-220 BC, AE knife

Like other provincial mints in the late Qing Dynasty, the mint in Zhili
was producing 1,000 regulation struck cash coins at the cost of
2,237 cash and thus losing a great deal on the production of these
coins. This explains the rarity of most provincial struck square hole
cash coins, with the exception of Guangdong and Fujian provinces.
Most mints returned to casting cash coins as the costs of using
western machinery to produce them was not cost effective.

upheavals of the Taiping Rebellion by Liu Lichuan. He took the nien
hao (reign title) of Tian Yun (heavenly movement). It was one of a
number of rebel groups to arise during this period, either affiliated
with or proclaiming support for the rebel Taiping administration. The
name (“Small Swords”) refers to daggers used by warriors or martial
artists in close combat. It is believed to be linked to triads. The
society consisted mainly of natives from Guangdong and Fujian,
including Li Shaoqing, Li Xianyun and Pan Yiguo, directors of some
of the huiguan or native place associations of Shanghai. Liu Lichang
was killed in February 1855. Those caught in possession of these

In 1928 the most modern minting machinery available was
delivered to the newly constructed mint in Bhuj. The old mint was
located just outside the fort walls of the palace, whereas the new
mint was built near the Mahadeva Gate. New dies were created
similar to the previous issue, but with smaller Gujarati legends and
finer engraved leaves within the wreath on the obverse. It was likely
that specimen sets were struck for the occasion of the opening of
the new mint.
This is the only example of an extant set that we are aware of.

During World War II, Normandie was seized by US authorities at
New York and renamed USS Lafayette. In 1942, the liner caught fire
while being converted to a troopship, capsized onto her port side
and came to rest on the mud of the Hudson River at Pier 88, the site
of the current New York Passenger Ship Terminal. Although
salvaged at great expense, restoration was deemed too costly and
she was scrapped in October 1946. Photo size reduced.

Banaras 1957, Numismatic Society of India, Banaras Hindu
University, 390 pages, 92 plates, hardcover, with dust jacket,
for the past 50+ years this book remains the bible of Gupta
Coin classification. It comprehensively lists all the coin types
and varieties of Gupta Gold coins. This book was compiled by
Dr. A.S. Altekar over a period of years and is truly a must have
for any library that wants to cover Indian Coins. To date, there
is no other book that covers the entirity of Gupta Numismatics
in such depth. While there is debate on some inconsistencies in
the different classifications used by Dr. Altekar, it still remains
as complete a work as possible and is the standard work on the
series, scarce and hard to find $120 - 150
