Commentary
Ce type très rare était naguère exceptionnel, mais de plus en plus d’exemplaires semblent arriver sur le marché ces dernières années. Ce n’est que le second tétradrachme de ce type que nous proposons à la vente, après le bga_197105 vendu 2200€ et le bga_331083. Ce dernier semble d’ailleurs être issu des mêmes coins de droit et de revers que celui proposé ici.
This very rare type was once exceptional, but more and more examples seem to be arriving on the market in recent years. This is only the second tetradrachm of this type that we are offering for sale, after bga_197105 sold for €2,200 and bga_331083. The latter also seems to come from the same obverse and reverse dies as the one offered here.
