PTOLEMAIC EGYPT. Ptolemy X Alexander, 101-88 B.C. AR Tetradrachm (13.00 gms), Alexandreia Mint, dated RY 19 (96/5 B.C.). VERY FINE.

Svor-1679; SNG Cop-368. Obverse: Diademed head of Ptolemy I right, wearing aegis around neck; Reverse: Eagle standing left on thunderbolt; LIΘ (date) to left, ΠA to right. This charming example has some light porosity and has seen circulation, but, offering a good strike, it retains charm as a piece for collectors on a budget.
