    I finally got around to photographing the tetradrachm pictured below that I scored from CNG auction 453. The coin is an excellent strike from fairly fresh dies and struck on good metal considering the silver content on these coins averages only 15%. Prieur cited only 5 examples, with none in Coin Archives.
