Helmeted head of Athena right Rv Thunderbolt Hoover 1535 Berend 4 5.76 grms 17mm Photo by W. Hansen[ATTACH=full]1183261[/ATTACH] Hoover in HGC refers to the coin as an octobol though traditionally the coin is referred to as a double dekadrachm. It can be seen that adding some four obols weight which would roughly be 2,8 grams would bring the coin in line with an Attic weight stater.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
