Commentary


Les drachmes dites aux lignes entremêlées étaient encore, il n’y a pas si longtemps complètement inconnues... L’avers est interprété comme dérivant de Rhoda. Elles sont classées par facilité dans le type V de la série 1244 “types composites (or et argent)” du Nouvel Atlas. Malheureusement, faute de provenances, l’attribution de cette série reste très incertaine.
The so-called drachmas with intertwined lines were still, not so long ago, completely unknown... The obverse is interpreted as deriving from Rhoda. They are classified for ease in type V of series 1244 “composite types (gold and silver)” of the New Atlas. Unfortunately, due to lack of provenance, the attribution of this series remains very uncertain.
