KARYSTOS
No.: 547 Tetradrachmon, erste Hälfte 5. Jhdt.v.Chr. From the Asyut hoard, and the Numismatic Fine Arts Mail Bid Sale of 14 December 1989, 283. In the Asyut publication it is incorrectly stated that only the obverse die of this coin is shared with the Brussels specimen. The two coins are actually die duplicates. In spite of the die wear (and not the circulation wear) that reduces the quality of this coin, it is still an attractive specimen with its typical Asyut colour just beginning to tone.
