Philip I. Tetradrachm, 11.16g (1h). Rome, 246 AD. Obv: AYTOK K M IOYΛ ΦIΛIΠΠOY CEB Bust laureate, draped, cuirassed right. Rx: ΔHMAPX - EΞOYCIAC around, MON VRB in exergue, S - C in field, Γ (officina 3) to right of eagle's head, Eagle with spread wings standing right on ground line, head left, wreath in beak. McAlee 899Aa (Ex. Rare). Mint State

Very rare with ground line, which though normal on the unmarked coins, is usually omitted on the tetradrachms bearing officina letters. McAlee 899Aa records only one coin from officina Γ with ground line, communicated to him by M. Prieur. Our second recorded specimen is from the same reverse die as that coin, but from a different obverse die
