Ptolemaic Kingdom of Egypt. Ptolemy VIII Euergetes II (Physcon)
Joint rule with Ptolemy VI Philometor (Circa 170–163 BCE).
Denomination: Bronze Diobol (Æ29)
Mint: Alexandria, Egypt

Weight: 22.53 g
Diameter: 29 mm
Reference: Svoronos 1424; SNG Copenhagen 308–310
Grade: Very Fine (VF)

Obverse: Diademed head of Zeus-Ammon facing right, sporting a prominent ram's horn around the ear and wearing a taenia (royal headband). Central flan preparation dimple present at center.

Reverse: ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΠΤΟΛΕΜΑΙΟΥ ("Of King Ptolemy"). Two eagles with closed wings standing left on a thunderbolt, symbolizing the joint co-regency. A filleted cornucopia (horn of plenty) rests in the left field. Matching flan preparation dimple dead center between the eagles.

Numismatic Notes & Highlights:

Surfaces: Features a highly appealing, smooth, and completely stable dark chocolate-brown patina with no signs of aggressive cleaning or environmental degradation.
Details: The reverse side is exceptionally sharp for the issue. The Greek letters in "ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ" are highly raised and crisp, and the layered feather details on both eagles remain clearly visible.
Wear: Normal high-point wear and smoothing consistent with the grade are present on the hair curls and cheek of Zeus-Ammon on the obverse.
