IONIA. Uncertain. 6th century BC. 1/24 Stater (Electrum, 6.5 mm, 0.66 g). Facing lion's head of lion's scalp. Rev. Quadripartite incuse square. Bodenstedt -. Hilbert -. Cf. Klein 416 (incuse punch not quadripartite). Rosen -. Cf. SNG Kayhan 713 (incuse punch not quadripartite). Wiedauer -. Seemingly unpublished. Nicely centered. Very fine.



With all the many facing lion's scalp electrum fractions, it is surprising that this one with a quadripartite incuse reverse seems to be unpublished. It appears stylistically distinct from the 1/24 staters referenced above in Klein and SNG Kayhan.
