Leukas, Akarnania, Greece, c. 350 - 320 B.C.
|Akarnania|, |Leukas,| |Akarnania,| |Greece,| |c.| |350| |-| |320| |B.C.|, There should be Λ behind the goddesses head but it is missing on this coin. Perhaps it was, in error, not engraved on the die, or perhaps it was unstruck because the letter on the die was filled with dirt. Although we have seen coins of this type struck from nearly a dozen different reverse dies, we have not found a die match to help determine why the Λ is missing.
