<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Terence Cheesman, post: 8384108, member: 86498&quot;]Electrum Trite from an unknown mint circa 600 BC Obv, Geometric design consisting of a cross surrounded by a collapsing box. Rv. Incuse square with a &quot;fishbone&quot; pattern within Rosen 12 Part of the 1999 Hoard 4.65 grms&nbsp; 11 mm Photo by W. Hansen [ATTACH=full]1487906[/ATTACH]As little is known about these coins it is difficult to make much of an assessment of them. One source suggest that they came from Ephesos It is clearly a part of a series as larger denoms as well as smaller are known. The hekte is generally seen as a denomination that comes somewhat later, however the higher gold content of this Trite does give one some confidence that it is earlier.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
