Diademed and horned head to right / Poseidon seated to left on low rock, holding trident and aphlaston; BAΣIΛEΩΣ to outer left, ΔHMHTPIOY to right, monograms to inner left and right. Newell -; cf. 110 for same type with different monogram; cf. HGC 3.1, 1013; Leu 6, lot 126. 17.14g, 30mm, 3h.
Good Very Fine; attractive light tone. Extremely Rare - an apparently unpublished type.
From the inventory of a UK dealer.
The rarity of this coin is not denoted solely by the difference in monogram from Newell 110 but also in the different placement of the reverse legend. Newell 107-109 provide options for our HP monogram but with the regnal name reversed, making this coin an unpublished hybrid between Newell's group A and B.
