Forepart of horse right; grape bunch to left / Head and forepaws of panther facing within incuse square. gVF. Apparently unpublished.

Crested Korinthian helmet right / Amphora in dotted square border within incuse square. VF. Sep 10, 2014 Uncertain (BC 440-380) Hemiobol493 views5th century BC. AR Hemiobol or Tetartemorion (6mm, 0.17g, 2h). Helmet left / Amphora within linear square. Unpublished in the standard references. VF, toned. Very rare. Varieties of this type have appeared at auction recently, and have been tentatively attributed to Neandria in Troas, where an early fraction featured a helmet on the obverse. While an attribution to a mint in that region is reasonable, Neandria is probably not correct, as its early fractions consistently feature a ram or barley grain on the reverse, which were emblematic of the city. At the same time, the nearby city of Larissa consistently featured an amphora on the reverse of nearly all of its coinage, which would make it a more likely candidate.1 commentsSep 10, 2014 Uncertain (BC 440-390) Wheel - Tetartemorion319 views5th century BC. AR Tetartemorion (5mm, 0.20g). Head of eagle left / Four-spoked wheel within circular incuse. Unpublished in the standard references. gVF, toned. Rare. Although attributed to Magnesia in previous auction appearances, the known types (head of eagle / wheel) are not specific enough to assert such an attribution.Sep 10, 2014 Uncertain (BC 450-400) Obol241 viewsca 450-400 BC. AR Obol (9mm, 0.53g, 6h). Rider on horseback right / Facing bull’s head; stylized palm frond above. Unpublished in the standard references. VF, porous surfaces, minor deposit on reverse.

Head of Helios left within solar disk / Rose with bud to each side; M-E flanking. VF, dark find patina. Rare. While some of these “solar disk” drachms are attributable to Rhodes, most of the issues have long been recognized as being psudo-Rhodian issues from mints in Caria. The ME issues had originally been assigned to Megiste, but R. Ashton convincingly argues against this speculative attribution (cf. R. Ashton, “The Coinage of Nisyros” in Travaux Le Rider, p. 16, n. 4). Sep 30, 2013 Uncertain (BC 550-520) Tetrobol480 viewsca 5th century BC. AR Tetrobol (11mm, 2.86g).

Auc. 287 Lot 217) are missing from the the major published collections but appear on the market from time to time. Changes in style indicate they must have been struck over a considerable time.Nov 09, 2012 Uncertain (BC 440-390) Star - Hemiobol 1365 views5th century BC. AR Hemiobol (7mm, 0.35g). Helmeted head of Athena right / Star of four rays; pellets between rays; all within beaded square border within incuse square. Near EF, lightly toned, surfaces a bit granular. Rare. This type is missing from the the major published collections but appears on the market from time to time. Changes in style indicate they must have been struck over a considerable time. This earlier issue appears less frequently than the later style coins.Nov 09, 2012 Uncertain (BC 440-390) Wheel - Hemiobol468 viewsca 500-450 BC. AR Hemiobol (5mm, 0.28g). Eagle in flight / Wheel.

Head of a roaring lion left / Symbol within incuse square. Near VF, porous. Rare. Both cited examples are larger denominations, presumably obols. The Rosen specimen has the lion’s head facing right, while the obverse of the Kayhan example is largely obliterated. Jun 12, 2012 Uncertain (BC 400-330) Hemiobol443 views4th century BC. AR Hemiobol (7mm, 0.22g, 11h). Head of Pan right / Kylix. Good VF, toned, light porosity. Fine style. Very rare, unpublished in the standard references. This type has been attributed to various locations in past catalogs, but none are particularly convincing. Jun 09, 2012 Uncertain (BC 480-420) Hemidrachm251 views5th century BC. AR Diobol(?) (12mm, 1.76g, 12h). Lion at bay right / Facing gorgoneion within incuse square. Apparently unpublished. VF, surfaces a little rough. The style of the gorgoneion is similar to another series of fractions with a different obverse type (featuring the elements of a chimera, cf. CNG 85, lot 477 and Lanz 150, lot 162). Unfortunately, that series also cannot currently be assigned to a mint. Jun 09, 2012 Uncertain (BC 440-380) Hemiobol265 viewslate 5th century BC. AR Hemiobol (0.21g, 5mm). Crested Korinthian helmet right / Amphora in linear square border within incuse square. VF. Very rare.Jun 05, 2012 Uncertain (BC 440-380) Hemiobol274 views5th century BC. AR Hemiobol (0.22g, 6mm).

Extremely rare, VF.Apr 01, 2012 Uncertain (BC 425-375) Diobol B1305 viewsca 425-375 BC. AR Unit (9.7mm, 1.07g, 9h). Forepart of boar right, bunch of grapes below / Lion's head right.Dec 19, 2011 Uncertain (BC 425-375) Diobol B1349 viewslate 5th-early 4th century BC. AR Obol.

AR Diobol (9mm, 1.19g, 6h). Forepart of boar right; monogram (?) below / Head of roaring lion right; grapes (?) below. CNG 73, lot 420 (second coin illustrated); otherwise unpublished. VF, porous. Dec 18, 2011 Uncertain (BC 350-300) Drachm - Memnon427 viewsca 350-300 BC. AR Drachm (3.19g). Head of Helios with nimbus left / Rosebud, M-E. EF. Rare. Ex Bankhaus Aufhäuser 11 (München, 1995), lot 111. Since variants with EY and NI exist (instead of ME), Ashton suggests a localization in the vicinity of the Dardanelles and links this issue to the two Rhodian brothers Memnon and Mentor.Dec 17, 2011 Uncertain (BC 600-550) EL Hekte2450 viewsca 600-550 BC. EL Hekte (2.73g), probably on the Phokaian weight standard. Scorpion / Irregular incuse square. Apparently unpublished and unknown. Some minor marks, otherwise EF. Ex Gorny & Mosch 190 (10/2010), 245. This is an extraordinary piece, quite clearly on the Phokaian standard (as is the piece in the Leu sale - there are lighter electrum pieces with scorpions, as Weidauer 170, but they seem to be on the Milesian standard). The possibility that this piece may have been produced in Thrace or Macedon, given the well known bee that is found on uncertain silver coins from that area (CNG Auction 88, 75) is not unlikely, especially given the rather rough incuse square. There is also a very similar scorpion on some slightly later silver coins that are now also attributed to northern Greece since some have been found there (as SNG Copenhagen 377 and SNG con Aulock 6664 - both published as being from Asia Minor).Nov 06, 2011 Uncertain (BC 200-100) Drachm?821 views2nd century BC. AR Drachm(?) (2.04g, 14mm, 12h). Radiate head of Helios facing slightly right / Eagle, with spread wings, standing right on thunderbolt; T to right. VF, find patina, some porosity. The types on this issue are fairly common in the regions of southwest Asia Minor, Caria, Phrygia, and Lycia. The combination of these two types on a single issue, however, is unknown. At the same time, only one city, Kibyra in Phrygia, used both of these types on its coinage (cf. SNG von Aulock 3719 and 3720). Attribution to that city, though, is doubtful as all of its known issues bear the city ethnic.Nov 01, 2011 Uncertain (BC 450-400) turtle 2 - Hemiobol236 views5th century BC. AR Hemiobol (0.32g, 6mm, 10h). Tortoise / Astragalos within incuse square. VF, find patina.Nov 01, 2011 Uncertain (BC 500) Obol301 views5th century BC. AR Obol(?) (0.88g, 8mm).

Extremely rare.1 commentsNov 01, 2011 Uncertain (BC 480-420) Obol868 views5th century BC. AR Obol (7mm, 0.68g). Elements of Chimaera: foreparts of lion, stag, and dragon(?), joined together at center and radiating outward / Facing gorgoneion within incuse square. Unpublished. VF, toned, some porosity. Possibly unique. This coin appears to be the obol denomination for a series featuring the Chimaera on the obverse and a gorgoneion in incuse on the reverse, for which drachms and hemidrachms are known. Jun 21, 2011 Uncertain (BC 425-375) Diobol B2951 viewslate 5th-early 4th century BC. AR Diobol (1.18g, 11mm, 6h).
