247, Lot: 151. Estimate $300. Sold for $485. This amount does not include the buyer’s fee.

PAMPHYLIA, Aspendos. Circa 400-380 BC. AR Stater (20mm, 11.01 g, 11h). Two wrestlers grappling / Slinger standing right; triskeles to right; all within pelleted square border within incuse square. Cf. Tekin Series 3; cf. SNG France 52-7. Good VF, toned, some die rust, flan a little compact. Perhaps a contemporary imitation.

The angular molding of the wrestlers, the odd position of their hands, and the peculiar yet interestingly artistic style point to this perhaps being imitative.
