Ex-Astarte YCA #2, lot 14

Regling's monograph from 1906 was the first die study of any Greek coinage to be published. The obverse die break is known from at least 4 other specimans (Roma, CNG, Nomos, Seaby's Coin & Medal bulletin April 1975, A236 and front cover) all sharing the same obverse and reverse dies. Further examination could possibly help place the coins in chronological order of striking based on die wear.

I missed out acquiring the Seaby coin when it was auctioned at the Geoffry Bell Toronto Coin Auction in 2017. Since then I've been on the lookout for one of these coins with the die break. 7 years later, I finally added one to my collection.9 commentsJay GT4

Gela, named after the river Gela, was founded around 688 BC by colonists from Rhodos (Rhodes) and Crete, 45 years after the founding of Syracuse. In 424 B.C., the Congress of Gela established a platform of "Sicily for the Sicilians" and formed a league that pushed back the Athenian attempt to conquer the island.2 commentsSam

SNG ANS describes the reverse figure as a cow, whereas Oliver Hoover describes it as a man-faced bull. CNG uses "river god" for its description, based off of Jenkins, and understand "river god" to mean a man-faced bull.

In 409 B.C., the Carthaginians conquered Himera, crucified three hundred of its leading men and obliterated the town. The site has been desolate ever since. The few surviving Greeks were settled by the Carthaginians eleven kilometers west of Himera at Thermae Himeraeae (Termini Imerese today). Thermae was the birthplace of Agathocles. – FORVM description notes
