Description

★ Apparantly Unpublished ★

PAMPHYLIA. Side. Time of Nero or Later, mid 1st-mid 2nd century . Obv: Head of Athena to left right, wearing crested Corinthian helmet. Rev. CI-ΔH Nike alighting to left, holding wreath in her outstretched right left. Unpublished?, but cf. SNG France 740 var. Struck on a broad flan.
The use of the latinized C in the ethnic, instead of the old Greek Σ, is an indication that this coin was struck around the time of Nero or later. The first use of the letter C is attested during the reign of Tiberius, but the old Σ was used almost exclusively until the reign of Claudius. Condition: Very fine.
Weight: 2.34 g.
Diameter: 15 mm.
