Sold for $240. This amount does not include the buyer’s fee.

CARIA, Uncertain. Circa 500-470 BC. AR Tetartemorion (7mm, 0.28 g, 11h). Head of roaring lion right / Confronted bull’s heads. Unpublished in the standard references. Good VF.


An interesting coin. The lion appears Carian in style, and the confronted bull’s heads oddly resemble the facing “horned” lion heads of some types typically given to Hekatomnos (compare SNG Keckman 843).
