Macedon_Paionia_Lykkeios_SNG-ANS_1019_gf.jpg
Paionia, Lykkeios. 359-340 BC. AR Tetradrachm of Damastion or AstibosMacedon, Paionia, Lykkeios. 359-340 BC. AR Tetradrachm (12.80 gm) of Damastion or Astibos. Laureate head of Zeus r. in dotted border. / ΛΥΚΚ − ΕΙΟΥ, Herakles crouching l., strangling the Nemean lion. Bow and quiver below r.

Same obv. dies: AMNG III/2 p.200 #8; Babelon Traite II.4 #1253; Sotheby's Paeonian Hoard 63; SNG ANS 1019. SNG Cop 2 - .
Almost all the tetradrachms of Lykkeios are struck from the identical obverse die, with a distinctive raised square punch mark on the head of Zeus. This is possibly the tip of a punch that was sunk into the die to indicate the deepest part of the intaglio design. The die engraver failed to remove all traces of the punch.
