This coin defies placement within the early groups defined by Vismara (Falghera), as the obverse style is a match for the Predynastic and Protodynastic A groups, while the reverse (anepigraphic triskeles) is canonical for Protodynastic B. Nevertheless, production of all of these groups overlap in the period 490/80-470/60 BC, to which this coin must belong.

Side (AD 254-268) AE 31 - Salonina354 viewsSalonina, Augusta, 254-268 AD. AE31 - 11 Assaria (16.29g, 1h).

Near VF, rough green patina. Rare. Group CEM.

An interesting type which copies a very identifiable shrine found on the coinage of Antioch. The engraver even went so far as to copy the “Δ Є” found on the Antiochene types, which is generally thought to stand for the office of the emperor as tribune (Δημαρχικης Єξουςιας) or, more likely, for the four eparchies (Δ Єπαρχειων) which the Antiochene coinage would circulate in: Commagene, Coele-Syria, Syria, and Phoenicia.

Myriandros (BC 400-370) Obol354 views4th century BC. AR Obol (9mm, 0.74g, 9h). Marine deity left, holding trident and crown / Lion crouching right on ground. VF, toned. Very rare. Krizan Coll.; ex CNG 66 (5/2004), lot 563; Levante Coll., 181.

94000648.jpg
Uncertain (BC 350-300) Drachm - Memnon354 viewsca 360-340 BC. AR Drachm (15mm, 3.48g, 6h). Pseudo-Rhodian type. Head of Helios left within solar disk / Rose with bud to each side; M-E flanking. VF, dark find patina. Rare.


While some of these “solar disk” drachms are attributable to Rhodes, most of the issues have long been recognized as being psudo-Rhodian issues from mints in Caria. The ME issues had originally been assigned to Megiste, but R. Ashton convincingly argues against this speculative attribution (cf. R. Ashton, “The Coinage of Nisyros” in Travaux Le Rider, p. 16, n. 4).
