THRACO-MACEDONIAN REGION, Uncertain. Circa 500 BC. AR Drachm (13mm, 4.02 g). Forepart of goat right / Quadripartite incuse square punch. Tzamalis –; Dewing 1008 (same obv. die); cf. Rosen 311 (electrum, but same obv. die). Near VF, toned, minor roughness, worn obverse die. Extremely rare, the second known.
From the RAJ Collection. Ex F. Shore FPL 111, no. 7.
The Rosen electrum coin is listed under the general category of "Uncertain Asia Minor." However, the fabric of these two drachms, which were found subsequent to the Rosen catalog, suggests a mint in the Thraco-Macedonian region, as does the type of a goat.
