European Collection assembled between early 70's and late 90's.This is one of the more magnificent issues of the Greek series. The obverse is complete, and utterly magnificent. The fact that this issue is rare can relate to two ideas: one is that within the Greek period, some Greek cities issued magnificent coins to show future generations how relevant they were; also, this issue could have been minted and given out as awards to important citizens. Reverse flatly struck on left side, otherwise in wonderful condition.. gEF
