Watch List notes:

PHILISTIA (PALESTINE), Uncertain mint. Mid 5th century-333 BC. AR Drachm (14.5mm, 3.27 g, 12h). Two confronted heads, the left bearded, each wearing headdress in form of lion forepart / Bearded head right, wearing headdress in form of lion forepart; Aramaic Š to lower left; all within ornate square border. Gitler & Tal –; Sofaer 258; Meshorer & Qedar 34 corr. (obv. headdresses not noted); HGC 10, –. Toned, minor roughness, light earthen deposits, test cut. VF. Very rare.

From the Bes Collection.

This type was attributed to Samaria by Meshorer & Qedar, but the authors of the Sofaer collection noted that the types were clearly more consistent with issues of Philistia, and thus was more likely to be from that region.
