Head of female left with a narrow hair band, long flowing hair, and an annular earing; behind, seal swimming downwards / Irregular incuse square. EF. Carr coll. Unknown to Bodenstedt, this is the 5th example to appear at auction. Same dies as Numismatica Ars Classica 92 part 1, 23 May 2016, Lot 216 and ‘Prospero’, The new York Sale XXVI, 4 January 2012, Lot 520. Others known are: Nomos 15, 22 October 2017, Lot 153; CNG 108, 16 May 2018, Lot 196.Dec 20, 2019 Kyzikos (BC 550-500) EL Hekte668 viewsca 550-500 BC. EL Hekte (2.69g, 10.5mm). Head of Perseus to left, wearing winged helmet with hair hanging beneath and represented by dots; behind, tunny swimming downwards / Quadripartite incuse square. VF. A rare type with about 20 known. Carr coll. William Greenwell, in his 1887 tome entitled: The electrum coinage of Cyzicus, notes that the helmet is the helmet of Hades lent to him by the nymphs. The reference by Greenwell is to the ‘mission’ of Perseus to cut-off the head of Medusa. The next coin in the Greenwell listing notes a type where much of the detail of this slaying is depicted – see Coin ID #14069.Dec 20, 2019 Kyzikos (BC 390-340) Drachm?537 viewsca 3rd century BC. AR Drachm(?) (5.07g, 20mm). Head of Kore Soteira left, with hair in sphendone; ΣΩTEIPA / Head of lion left; monogram to left; below, tunny left; KYZI. The weight of this piece is significantly heavier than SNG BN 408-10, which are closer to 3.25g. Additionally, the obverse style is much closer to the following series featuring the seated Apollo reverse type. BN 419 fits the obverse style and weight, but is of the later reverse type, pointing to a possible hybrid or transitional issue. Very rare and interesting. Very fine, some porosity.Nov 29, 2019 Kyzikos (BC 390-340) Hemidrachm320 viewsca 390-340 BC. AR Hemidrachm (1.48g, 12mm).

EL Hekte (2.59g, 9mm). Mother seal swimming to left with a young swimming to right below, each with annulet above. / Rough incuse square. Apparently unpublished and unique, a wonderful coin with an incredibly charming obverse. Nearly extremely fine. The name Phokaia is derived from the Greek word Φωκάι, which translates as 'seals' and is still found, as a Greek loanword, in the modern Latinian languages today (fr. 'phoque', it./span./portug. 'foca'). Unsurprisingly, the lovely animals served as a badge on Phokaia's coins, most commonly in the form of a small seal below or behind a larger main type. The earliest coinage of the city, however, still retains the seal as main type: on the present example, we find one of the most charming renderings of animals in all of Archaic Greek coinage, in the form of a mother seal swimming to the left with her young heading to the right below. The fact that mother and child swim in opposite directions gives the scenery an enchanting playfulness that almost certainly derives from personal observation by the artist - perhaps he was watching the animals romping around the small islands in the bay before Phokaia?Nov 23, 2019 Alexandreia (AD 177-192) AE 23 - Commodus204 viewsCommodus, 177-192 AD.
