Homer tells us Odysseus plundered the city, but spared Maron, who he identifies as a priest of Apollo. Maron thanks Odysseus with a gift of wine, for which the city was famous – the wine of Maroneia was esteemed throughout the ancient world. Here is a lovely little bronze with prancing horse and grape arbor. These types aren’t rare, but they’re seldom this attractive! Compare to retail here. $40 THRACE. Maroneia Æ14, 3.42g, 11h; Circa 400-350 BC Obverse: Horse prancing right, NK monogram below. Reverse: ΜΑΡ-ΩΝΙ-ΤΩΝ, around grape arbor in linear square, EY monogram below.
