Description

KINGS OF MACEDON. Perdikkas III, 365-359 BC. Diobol (Silver, 10.5 mm, 0.27 g, 10 h), Aigai. Head of bearded Herakles to right. Rev. ΠEP Bow and club within incuse square. HGC 3.1, 838. SNG Alpha Bank 237-8. Westermark, Remarks pl. LXX, 45. Porous and heavily crystalized, otherwise, good fine.

The coin is about a half gram light, seemingly due to the metal being highly crystalized. As is the case with all ancient coins, but especially so in this instance, extreme care should be taken when handling this coin.
