Samos (BC 404-394) Tridrachm3936 viewsca 404 or 394 BC. AR Tridrachm or Double Siglos (11.29g, 12h). The infant Herakles, nude but for a baldric over his left shoulder, kneeling to right on ground line, strangling a serpent with each hand, ΣΥΠ/ Lion's mask facing, ΣΑ below; all within circular incuse. Extremely rare. Toned EF. From the collections of C. Gillet, 1138, R. Jameson, and the Reverend H.V. Elliott, SWH 2/1908, purchased in Asia Minor 1818-1819.
This rare coin was struck to celebrate an alliance (syn = synmachikon = a coin of allies) between cities in western Asia Minor (Byzantion, Ephesos, Iasos, Knidos, Kyzikos, Lampsakos, Rhodes and Samos), which all used the common type of infant Herakles/snakes on obv with rev bearing normal city badge. It was thought that this alliance came about in 394 after the defeat of the Spartan fleet, but Karweise, Lysander as Herakliskos Drakonopnigon ('Herakles the snake-strangler'), NC 1980, has made a good case for it having taken place 10 years earlier, when the cities threw off Athenian domination with the help of the Spartan Lysander. In many ways this seems a better choice, but hoard evidence is inconclusive.

Samos (BC 600-570) EL Stater1938 viewsca 600-570 BC. EL Stater (17.22g). Uncertain design against a background of heavy filling ornament / Two parallel oblong incuse punches with irregular markings. VF. Ex Leu 77 (5/2000), lot 310.
The types of the early electrum of Samos are varied. The Samians had a unique style of coinage, with the central type placed against an amorphic patterned background. Various decriptions have been offered for the types-eagles, flowers, panthers, thunderbolts, etc. This cataloguer sees a flowering plant with two leaves, and a panther facing left below. The use of background ornament somewhat resembles the geometric patterns used as filling ornament on Corinthian pottery.

Samos (AD 198-209) AE 16 - Geta as Caesar490 viewsGeta as Caesar, 198-209 AD. AE16 (3.18g). AV K - AI ΓETAC, head right / CAM-IΩN, river-god Imbrasos reclining left, wearing himation, nude to hips, holding reed in right hand and resting left elbow on cornucopiae and vase from which water flows left. About VF. Hoeft coll.
In the marshes at the mouth of the river Imbrasos, the Ionian colonists under Proklos are said to have found a wooden image of Hera which was caught in a willow brushwood. Therefore, they built an altar beside this tree. From this altar the famous temple of Hera, the Heraion, originated. Imbrasos himself had a daughter Okyrrhoe by the Samian nymph Chesias (a hypostasis of the goddess Artemis). Okyrrhoe later was seduced by Apollo (Aelian, Hist.animal. 15.23).

Samos (AD 79-81) AE 24 – Titus & Domitian485 viewsTitus, with Domitian as Caesar, 79-81 AD. AE24 (9.55g, 6h). Laureate head of Titus right / Bare head of Domitian right. VF, green patina, metal flaws. Ex Sierra Coll.
From RPC II (p. 174): It is difficult to know if 1127 is a coin of the reign of Vespasian or of Titus. The titulature is the same as used on the reverse of of 1126 (of Vespasian), and it could represent an issue made in the reign of Vespasian for his sons. On the other hand, it might perhaps be expected to be a smaller denomination, if that were the case; it is in fact the same denomination as 1126, which slightly strengthens the possibility that it was made during the reign of Titus.â€
