PERSIA. Achaemenidae. Darius I to Xerxes I, ca. 505-480 B.C. AR Siglos, Sardis Mint, ca. 520-505 B.C. NGC FINE. Scratches.

Sunrise-17. Obverse: Half-Length bust of Darius right, holding bow and arrow; Reverse: Rectangular incuse punch. From the elusive and popular early half-length type, this example retains good details, with even wear and some deep toning. A type that does not come up often, and as such one that will be popular despite the noted issues.

NGC FINE.

Estimate: $150.00 - $300.00
