Phokaia (BC 477-388) B- - EL 1/6 Stater3606 viewsca 478-387 BC. EL Hekte (2.50g), struck ca 410 BC. Head of bearded Persian satrap (Pharnabazos) left, wearing a Persian tiara bound with an elaborate diadem; behind, seal swimming downwards / Quadripartite incuse square. Unique and apparently unpublished. aEF.

This coin bears what is surely a portrait of the famous Persian satrap Pharnabazos, who was active in Hellespont during the last years of the 5th century. He based himself in the city of Daskyleion, which had been a possession of his family since the 470s. His family was related to the Achaemenid royal house. The portrait is surely Pharnabazos since it is exactly the same as on named silver staters issued ca 410 probably in Kyzikos but possibly in Ionia (as BMC, Ionia, p. 352, 12, Kraay/Hirmer 618 and SNG von Aulock 1216). It is fascinating that his portrait should appear on a hekte from Phokaia - the fact that it was hitherto unknown implies that it was originally issued in very small numbers, perhaps as a donative of some kind.

Phokaia (BC 600-522) EL 1/6 Stater2003 viewsca 525 BC. EL Hekte (2.57g). Head of eagle to left with frontal eye and hooked beak; dotted neck truncation; below, seal swimming to left / Irregular incuse square. Unpublished. Of great rarity, the finest of the 3 examples known. Good EF.

This exceptional piece, which was unknown to Bodenstedt, should date to the late 6th century (Bodenstedt’s dates are generally thought to be somewhat high). For a similar but slightly later eagle head, see the later issues of Cypriot Paphos (as ACGC 1088 and Traité II, 1278 ff.) but these are somewhat more fussily done and lack the piercing look of this eagle. The only eagle heads that can compare with this one in power were those engraved over a century later by the artist Da... and his followers at Olympia.

Alexandreia (BC 171­-65) Drachm1053 viewsca 102/1-66/5 BC. AR Drachm (3.60g, 11h). Dated CY 228 (73 BC). Laureate head of Apollo left / Apollo Smintheus standing right, quiver over shoulder, holding bow, arrow, and patera; monogram to inner left, date to inner right, [magistrate’s name in exergue]. Near VF, surface laminations, cleaning marks. Extremely rare denomination for this dated series (Bellinger records only two drachms, in the BM and Berlin, bearing the years 227 and 228, respectively).

This drachm belongs to the period of the city’s autonomy following the devastating defeat of Antiochos III of Syria by the Romans at the battle of Magnesia in 189 BC. Apollo Smintheus is depicted on both sides of the coin, the deity actually being named in the reverse inscription. Apollo Smintheus’ temple lay at Chryse, within the territory of Hamaxitos, one of the cities which had provided the original population of Alexandria. The statue of the god, by the celebrated Parian sculptor and architect Skopas, showed him standing with a mouse at his feet. This particular drachm is part of a series of dated issues that began during the time of Mithradates VI of Pontos (see Callataÿ, pp. 155-9). Consisting primarily of tetradrachms, of which fewer than 40 examples are known, this series was sporadically minted over the course of approximately 50 years. All of these issues bear the same types and monogram, but various magistrates’ names appear in the exergue on their reverses.
