Owl tetradrachms come in so many authentic varieties and are also faked so often and so expertly that I personally would refrain from buying one that doesn&#039;t come from a fully reliable dealer and with a lifetime guarantee of authenticity.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is my own humble example:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]990405[/ATTACH]</p><p><font size="3">Attica, Athens, AR tetradrachm, ca. 440s–430s BC. Obv: head of Athena to right, wearing crested Attic helmet decorated with three olive leaves and palmette. Rev: AΘE; Owl standing right, head facing; to left, olive sprig and crescent; all within incuse square. 24mm, 17.14g. Ref: Kroll 8. Ex Leu, Webauktion 8, lot 232.</font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
