The Nymphaeum, the Nymphaeum, the Nymphaeum is on Fire!!

    This one is not my first purchase of 2016, but from my first package of coins to arrive this year.

    It's the sort of curiosity I really like, marrying rarity - I found one example in acsearch and another in CNG - with an interesting design and historical background. It was struck during Illyrian Apollonia's time as a Roman protectorate, the obverse showing a formation of rocks on fire, and the reverse a lagobolon, a rabbit-beating stick that was a symbol of the satyr-god Pan.

    The rocks represent a famed nymphaeum that was located near Apollonia. While the typical nymphaeum was a sanctuary associated with sacred springs, grottoes and water nymphs, that of Apollonia was unusual in that streams of fire were said to issue from the rock of the nymphaeum, while warm asphalt springs flowed from beneath, giving life to a lush, verdant valley.

    Another tidbit of knowledge I enjoyed discovering - in his Life of Sulla, Plutarch describes an event that occurred while Sulla was camped in the vicinity of Apollonia while preparing for his invasion of Rome. The story is that a satyr was caught while asleep in the Nymphaeum and brought before Sulla. Translators tried in vain to question the creature, who would only reply in the hoarse, bleating cries of a goat. In horror and disgust, the great Roman general ordered that it be taken away from his sight. Poor Pan.

    ILLYRIA, Apollonia
    AR 1/2 Victoriatus
    1.5g, 14.8mm
    Circa mid-late 1st century BC
    Maier 121; BMC 44.
    O: AI-NEA, fires of the Nymphaeum of Apollonia.
    R: AΠOΛΛΩ-NIATAN, lagobolon.
    Notes: The most common silver coins of Apollonia and Dyrrhachion under Roman rule are the drachms with the familiar cow and suckling calf obverse. While conventionally called drachms, these were actually struck at the weight of the Roman victoriatus, 3.4g. The half-units, however, seem to have gotten stuck with the unwieldy name 1/2 victoriati rather than hemidrachms.

    Please share any coins of Apollonia that you might have!

    An amazing piece, and not a type I knew about. I don't have anything like this of my own, but thank you for sharing.

    I can not help thinking that there was a shortage of skilled engravers so rather than issuing coins done poorly, they came up with a design that was easy to cut. This is also the kind of coin I would love to have simply because it is so very different in so many ways.

    Rather than showing my ordinary Apollonia cow I offer this link to a coin I did not know existed but one I suspect will be on both of our want lists now.

    http://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=2304841

    It is early in the morning here and I have already learned more than I would expect for an entire day. I think I'll go back to bed and not risk brain overload before breakfast.

    Part of the fun of the hobby for those who can not buy every coin they see is research. We have mentioned the separate hobbies of coin cleaning and coin photography but here is another one: watching coin sales in which you are not participating. Few people own Thoroughbreds but many watch horse races.

    You quoted the CNG specimen:
    https://www.cngcoins.com/Coin.aspx?CoinID=153722
    That sale was for $900 on a $300 estimate. It quotes that same coin as being from their sale 57 from 2001 (the CNG online listing gives 2000 but sale 57 was April 4, 2001) so I looked it up and found a listing with a highlight box and a $500 estimate BUT the lot does not appear in the Prices Realized so I assume it did not sell at that sale but may have been scavenged later by someone who though it was interesting. Included with the Prices Realized for that sale was a long list of unsold lots and the prices they could be bought for at that time but lot 278 was not on that list.

    The interesting part is that in ~15 years the same coin offered by the same firm went from $500 to $300 in estimate and from unsold to $900 in realization. We often discuss the status of estimates and reserves. If the 2001 after sale purchaser paid 60% minimum, that would be $300 or equal to the 2010 estimate. The 2010 purchaser had competition or the once unloved lot would not have gone to three times estimate.

    Who needs mystery novels when we have the coin market? What were we talking about here within a year of this sale?

    Where is it now? The mystery continues.

    That's an awesome OP-coin, Z-Bro ... the obverse and reverse are both very cool (I love coins showing weapons, so the lagobolon-reverse is a total winner)

    I'm pretty sure that this is my only example showing a lagobolon ...

    Wow, Z... what an incredible and stalk-worthy score! Oh how I want one :)

    Doug-- thanks for excavating the old Sheik thread. It was before my time and was very enjoyable, if not new information. When searching archives for comps I always wonder if a given coin was "sheiked" when the price realized is otherwise inexplicably high.

    Thanks for the detective work on the CNG example; I was wondering about its earlier outing in the 2001 sale. I'm finding that for rare issues, estimates are even more useless than they generally are for trying to predict the final hammer of a coin. This example shows that even past sales records can be pretty useless. I wouldn't be surprised at all if the next sale of this coin ends up with it even higher than $900, down to $300, or unsold again.

    On the other hand, the next time one of those imitative Apollonia/Dyrrhachion hybrid drachms you showed in the acsearch link turn up, there's likely to be at least one buyer :).

    I wrote a whole article on this type for The Numismatist a few years ago. I'll try to find a pdf when I get home. I'm pretty sure I have a photo of the coin anyway, a different example than those cited here.

    The lagobolon-hockey stick is actually a special club used for bashing bunnies. (Seriously!)

    Likely story! Given the flames, we can at least be pretty sure it wasn't ice hockey :D.

    Well, Z-Bro => The Atlanta Flames became the Calgary Flames (both NHL Hockey teams)

    Hmmm, the Atlanta emblem looks quite a bit like your obverse, eh?
