Elagabalus AE25 Provincial From Phoenicia, Sidon
Obverse :
His laureate and draped bust right.
Reverse :
     Ancient Coin Car of Astarte right with baeytl on base, small figures to either side.

  An interesting and somewhat scarce coin from the Sidon mint. It features a decent
  portrait and good depiction of the car of Astarte. The inscriptions are only partial.
  A neat coin for the provincial collector.
