CNG 88, Lot: 433. Estimate $200. Sold for $360. This amount does not include the buyer’s fee.

ASIA MINOR, Uncertain. Late 6th century BC. AR Drachm or Third Stater (12mm, 3.22 g). Lydio-Milesian standard(?). Cuttlefish / Rough incuse square. Unpublished, but cf. CNG 78, lot 896 where this is the undertype on a restruck coin. Fine, porous. Extremely rare.

The obverse of this type is similar to the archaic issues of Koressos on Keos. According to K. Sheedy, though, the weight and incuse of this type are inconsistent with such an attribution.
