Antioch, Tyche and Altar, Roman Syria, 76 - 77 A.D. Ancient Greek coin

This is a nice example of a trichalkon coin from ancient Greece, minted in Antioch in 76-77 AD under M. Ulpius Traianus, the legate of Syria, father of Trajan who later became emperor of Rome.
On one side is the towered, draped and veiled bust of Tyche facing right and on the reverse there is a burning, garlanded altar

This would be a perfect gift for a budding coin collector or to have as a talking piece or to research.
