ΣYPAKOΣIΩN Head of Athena to right, wearing Corinthian helmet; behind neck, Λ and Boeotian helmet. Calciati 6. Heritage 3044, 2016, 29898 (same reverse die). Cf. SNG ANS 509-510 and SNG Copenhagen 712 (with ΑΙ, but with other symbols). Apparently a very rare variety, missing from all collections consulted. Attractive, lustrous and sharp. Reverse slightly double-struck, otherwise, extremely fine.

From a collection in Ticino formed prior to 2000.
