PANTIKAPAION, CIMMERIAN BOSPOROS AE
HGC 7, 114, Anhokin 1039, SNG Stancomb 554-5, Choice Very Fine, 21.6mm, 6.61 grams, Struck Circa. 310 - 304/3 B.C.E.
Obverse: Wreathed head of beardless satyr to left, countermark of twelve rayed star
Reverse: Lion's head to left; sturgeon left below, Π - Α - Ν around, countermark bow in bow-case, Π - Α - Ν around
BEAUTIFUL CHOICE example! These coins are often struck with these countermarks, which invariably obstruct the face of the satyr or the line. On this coin they landed in the perfect places. Probably the most attractive countermarked example we have seen.
