did all the different denominations have the same designs? im trying to narrow in what I want to collect I think im leaning towards the bigger coins like Decadrachms and Tetradrachms

No matter how many times I saw an obol on someone's fingertip, I couldn't tell how small they actually are until I had one Incredible the artwork on those tiny jewels

so many great videos from you! I have a handful of Miletus obols with lion on obverse and beautiful artistic compartments on reverse Quite common I think, Or is it an obol? I also see it called 1/12 stater

Why does the obol not circulate outside of the polis if it is made of precious metal? It has a universal value unlike bronze coins Interesting

I won the obol from my ancestral town of Allifae It was quite a task just finding one in recognizable condition but mine is magnificent Maybe you can have it printed on a t-shirt for me

The art on the Syracusan Litra even looks a little like LRBs

Love the Chersonese obols The ones with the lion looking over its shoulder on the obverse I have a number of them and they have some fun, interesting reverse designs on them!
