SICILY, Syracuse. Timoleon and the Third Democracy. 344-317 BC. AR Dilitron (14.5mm, 1.61 g, 10h). Struck circa 344-317 BC. Janiform female head; two dolphins to right / Horse galloping right. HGC 2, 1375; SNG ANS 516. Near EF, toned, a hint of porosity, minor gouge on obverse, a couple edge marks on reverse. Exceptional for this issue, rare thus.
From the estate of Thomas Bentley Cederlind. Ex Gorny & Mosch 196 (7 March 2011), lot 1238.
While not a rare issue, this coinage appeared to have circulated heavily, with most specimens exhibiting a high degree of wear. Finding one in the condition of the present coin is thus unusual. A similar example, in Choice EF grade, realized $4750 (Triton XVII, lot 76).
