This type is unpublished, but similar pieces are known for Abydos and Kebren (and also possibly Gergis; see Triton XVI, lot 437), where the obverse features the civic badge of the city (eagle at Abydos and ram at Kebren) and the reverse has a facing gorgoneion in incuse square. The style of the gorgoneion here is also consistent with these other issues.May 22, 2018
