<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Skakke, post: 2552008, member: 82602&quot;]Looking at this Aegina, it reminds me of one of the late style staters in my collection. It too has a turtle in extremely high relief. I love the detail in the shell! The reverse shows a small dolphin. It&#039;s almost as if the people of Aegina is trying to say &quot;Ok, so we had to change the design fro turtle to a tortoise, but we&#039;ll put this tiny dolphin there to remind you that we are still an important maritime state&quot;. </p><p><br /></p><p>I will take a picture of the reverse and post it soon.</p><p><br /></p><p>AEGINA.</p><p>AR-Stater, 4.
