Description

ATTICA. Athens. AR Tetradrachm (16.84 gms), Timarchos, Nikago-, and Doroth-, magistrates, 134/3 B.C. NGC Ch AU, Strike: 5/5 Surface: 4/5. Flan Flaw.

HGC-4, 1602; Thompson-360.3 (this coin cited). New Style coinage. Obverse: Helmeted head of Athena right; Reverse: Owl, with head facing, standing right on overturned amphora; anchor and star to left, A on amphora, ΣΦ below; all within wreath. This lovely choice example has only the faintest hint of wear on the devices that are nicely struck. A slight flan flaw is the only detraction from this specimen.

From the Mark and Lottie Salton Collection. Ex: Ars Classica XVI (7/1933) lot # 1223. Ex: R. Ball Collection (Part VI - 2/1932) Lot #279.
