THRACE. Islands off Thrace. Thasos. AR Tetradrachm, ca. 140-110 B.C. NGC Ch VF. Scuff.
HGC-6, 358; Le Rider-51. Obverse: Wreathed head of Dionysos right; Reverse: Herakles standing left, holding club and lion skin; M to inner left. This attractive, broad flan Tetradrachm displays a charming strike and strong details, with a touch of minty brilliance as well. A scuff is the only demerit against this piece, though that should not weigh too heavily given the attractive and popular nature of the type.
Estimate: $200 - $400
