[QUOTE="Orielensis, post: 4031020, member: 96898"]That's an attractive example of a Lycian 1/6 stater! An abundance of these seems to have entered the market recently, so now is presumably the right time to get one. I'm fascinated by the reverse variety on these. So far, I got a plain three-letter example and another one with a dolphin control mark. What I'm still looking out for is one with an astragalos on the reverse. As far as I know, a study and catalogue of the varieties of this type is still missing.
