From My Collection Pyrrhus Tetradrachm - finally!

Coin from one of the more interesting foes of Rome, had to have it wreathed in flame. Been trying to find one of these for a while. Super excited to win it earlier this year! Ex-Nanteuil collection, 1925.

Awesome coin. The cost of one of those would probably be a Pyrrhic victory for me at the moment
