Thraco-Macedonian Region, Berge AR Stater. Circa 525-480 BC. Satyr, nude and ithyphallic, standing to right, grasping hand of nymph fleeing to right, head reverted; three pellets around / Rough incuse square divided diagonally. Peykov A0020; AMNG III/2, 14; HPM pl. VIII, 3; SNG ANS 953 (all as Lete); HGC 3, 531. 9.44g, 20mm.

Very Fine; deep cabinet tone.

It has been persuasively argued by S. Psoma that the coinage previously attributed to Lete and/or Siris is probably from Berge (cf. S. Psoma, 'The "Lete" Coinage Reconsidered' in Agoranomia. Studies in Money and Exchange Presented to John H. Kroll, (2006) pp. 61-85).
