EL Hemihekte – Twelfth Stater (8mm, 1.19g). Lydo-Milesian standard. Figural type. Head of lion right / Incuse square. VF. Very rare. The style of the obverse of this type has a resemblance to similar hemihektes of Miletos (cf. SNG Kayhan 444–8), but the attribution of those pieces is based on their incuses, all of which have geometric shapes or pellets similar to the staters that are conclusively proven to have been from Miletos (cf. SNG Kayhan 440–1). Further study, however, may eventually prove the attribution of these plain-incuse issues to Miletos as well.

Head of pegasos left / Incuse square. Near EF. On most examples of this issue, the wing of Pegasos is off the flan, and therefore the type is usually referred to as a horse’s head.

Pellet in center of linear diamond shape within linear rectangle; striations in outer margins / Incuse square punch. VF. The pellet within the diamond shape on the obverse is similar to the depiction of the eye on some early schematic lion head issues (cf. Weidauer 122 and Elektron II 26). It is therefore possible that these coins constitute a new denomination for that series. Jun 09, 2012 Ionia Uncertain (BC 625-600) Swastika - EL 1/24531 viewsca 625-600 BC.
