Trajan Tetradrachm minted in Antioch for Seleucis and Pieria

This coin, while not particularly rare, is often difficult to find in nice condition on a daily basis. Additionally, my example is quite distinctive because of its double strike. I say humorously that this is the variant with the double-headed eagle.
