Been in contact with THE expert on the Aesillas silver coinage,
Robert Bauslaugh.
Robert published the definitve book "The coinage in the
types of Aesillas,
Quaestor" where the huge die studies he did coupled with
hoard evidence totally overthrew the then current theories on the order of the
types.
I now have a copy of this excellent book but I couldn't find my
obverse type, it was said to be
Bauslaugh Gp 11, but I thought it looked more like a Gp 1 with Theta re-cut so contacted the oracle.
It now appears my Aesillas
tetradrachm is likely to be a NEW
OBVERSE!
Poor Bob is going to look at all the original photographs just to make sure!
The
reverse I couldn't find either, but as with all catalogues the many more reverses to obverses make it un-economical to print them all, and it is generally the
obverse dies that get transferred because of the differing wear rates of the 2 dies thus forming the all important die link studies for numismatic sequencing.
Watch this space.
