AEGINA. AR Stater (12.03 gms), ca. 404-350 B.C. NGC Ch EF★, Strike: 4/5 Surface: 4/5.
HGC-6, 438; BMC-146-65. Obverse: Land tortoise with segmented shell; Reverse: Thin skew pattern within incuse square. Presenting a seldom-seen well centered strike with bold relief and a distinct lack of the bankers' marks that commonly plague the series, this specimen undoubtedly stands apart and is wholly deserving of its star designation for exceptional eye appeal.

Estimate: $1500 - $3000
