Lotto 243:
Continental Greece. Kings of Macedon. Philip II (359-336 BC). AR Tetradrachm. Amphipolis mint. Struck under Kassander or his son, Antipater, c. 298/7-295/4 BC. Obv. Laureate head of Zeus right. Rev. Youth, holding palm, on horseback right; below, thunderbolt above Z; dolphin below horse's raised foreleg. Le Rider pl. 48, 5; SNG ANS 812. AR. 14.25 g. 26.00 mm. Impressive coins, brilliant and lightly toned. About EF. These late issues attributed to Amphipolis may actually be the earliest Celtic imitations of Philip II's tetradrachms. They exhibit a more formalized style, and Philip's name is sometimes, as on this particular issue, broken after the second Π instead of the first.
