    Here is a beautiful Greek silver in good metal:

    Silver. 13-12 mm. Mysia, Parion. 2.29 grams.
    Gorgon/Medusa head facing, tongue protruding [see the snakes below?]
    Cow standing left, head turned back. ΠA above P beneath
    Struck c. 350-300 BC.
    Sear Greek II 3922
    With old ticket from (a dealer? I don't know of him) Richard Storch
    Please compare to the upcoming Gemini piece estimated at $300.
    The centering is great, which is very important on a symmetric facing head. Good style. High grade. Nice tongue! [$149 SOLD+$5 in the US, $3 more abroad.]
