<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2543055, member: 19463&quot;]There are a lot of those sold in grades higher and lower so a cheap realization in a sale suggests to me that this one was placed in the wrong auction and people there were looking for one with more detail or less cleaning.&nbsp; It certainly is worth the $22!&nbsp; I have been wanting one of these.&nbsp; There are two denominations smaller (at least) which we have seen here but they are dolphins.&nbsp; There are drachms and staters of Thasos with the Satyr and his Nymph.&nbsp; I believe this is the smallest one with Satyr and certainly the one to have with the reverse legend naming the town.&nbsp; The earlier ones have the punch reverse.&nbsp; There also are the two coins of this size usually attributed to Lete but sometimes allowed as a Thasos.&nbsp; Legendless early coins may never be certain.&nbsp; My recent show finds posts showed two dolphins and a Lete satyr but I do wish there had been one of these.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Specialists in these may want the similar types with him shown 3/4 from the front or 3/4 from the back.&nbsp; We can never have them all.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
