AR Drachm (3.30g, 15mm, 6h). Laureate head of Apollo right / Forepart of bull butting right; kerykeion above. VF, flat strike in centers, porous. Unpublished. The style and fabric of the coin are consistent with the coinage of Ionia in the mid-late 4th century BC. The Apollo / bull butting types are common at Magnesia, but the absence of any maeander pattern casts doubt upon an attribution to that city. There are rare gold issues with these types at Samos (cf. Barron pl. XXX, 14-5), but it is unlikely that this is a previously unknown silver issue from that mint. Skepsis (BC 440-400) Trihemiobol518 viewsca 450-400 BC. AR Obol(?) (10mm, 0.83g, 10h).

Very rare and catalogued as pale electrum giving the appearance of being a silver coin. There is some substantial debate surrounding these issues. While a rare coin, there are examples of both the left and right facing Pegasos types in what is both clearly EL and what appears to be solely silver. Would the ancients accept a coin that did not have a strong yellowish tint as true EL? The original description by J.P. Six as EL is followed by CNG (see CNG 94, lot 459) and Roma (this coin).

Extremely rare, good F, brown-green patina. Hoeft coll. Most often this Apollo is named Apollo Lykeios. But this is not correct! Apollo is not holding wolfs but dogs as symbol of the seers Amphilochos and Mopsus. This coin is part of the struggle of the cities for more influence and prominence. Apollonis (BC 200-100) AE 15514 views2nd century BC. AE15 (2.33g). Head of Herakles right, wearing lion skin / ΑΠΟΛΛΟ-ΝΙΔΕΩΝ, thunderbolt. Brown patina, F. Rare. Righetti coll.
