Description

CILICIA. Nagidos. AR Obol (0.74 gms), ca. 400-380 B.C. NGC Ch AU★, Strike: 5/5 Surface: 5/5. Fine Style.
SNG BN-15. Obverse: Head of Aphrodite right; Reverse: Head of Dionysos right. Dazzlingly beautiful, this impressive Obol displays both lovely surfaces free of problem and a sharp strike that has applied details rather close to impeccably. Providing a clarity seldom seen on minors of the type, the beauty of the coin is highlighted by the perfect grades that NGC has assigned, along with the fine style designation. Only the slightest touch of rub is seen on the high portion of Aphrodite, though this is rather miniscule when compared with the beauty of the piece.
Estimate: $600.00- $1200.00
