Description

ITALY. Lucania. Metapontion. AR Stater (7.20 gms), ca. 540-510 B.C. NGC EF, Strike: 5/5 Surface: 3/5.
Noe Class-IV, 88 (same dies); HN Italy-1470; SNG ANS-195. Obverse: Barley ear with seven grains; Reverse: Incuse barley ear with seven grains. Pleasantly toned and with just a few light scuffs, this example stands out as far superior to that which is generally encountered. The obverse grain is quite bold, while the flan has a delightful round nature and, on the whole, remains very original.
Ex: Gasvoda Collection.
Estimate: $1250.00- $1750.00
