Description
LEVANTINE REGION, Uncertain. 5th-4th centuries BC. AR Fraction (6.5mm, 0.20 g, 3h). Head right, wearing crested helmet / Eagle (or falcon?) standing left; pseudo-legend to left; all in dotted square within incuse square. Triton XVIII, lot 769; otherwise, unpublished in the standard references. Toned, some porosity. VF. Very rare.
From the Klasma Asami Collection.
The Triton sale described the obverse head as wearing a bashlyk, but the type was off center on that example, obscuring the actual form of the headdress, which clearly is a crested helmet, as seen here.
Closing Date and Time: 9 June 2021 at 10:14:00 ET.
All winning bids are subject to an 18% buyer’s fee.
