Ex Dr Busso Peus, Frankfurt, Auction Sale 332, October 23, 1991 (lot 4017 part).
Plated coins are found across the coin issuing 'Greek' world. In most cases, fourrees are much less common than the same regular issue. The first fourrees were produced on these coins, being one of the first ancient silver coins produced in the Greek world. Consequently this plated siglos is much rarer than the silver issue, and consequently places a time when plated coins were first produced.
