| Lot description: ASIA MINOR or LEVANT, Uncertain. Augustus(?). 27 BC-AD 14. Æ (13mm, 1.88 g, 12h). Dated year 26 of an uncertain era, possibly Augustus (6/5 BC). XAΛKOYΣ / Anchor; ET ϚK (date) in field. RPC I 5606 (Uncertain); BMC 62 (Agrippa II). Dark brown patina, light deposits. VF. Very rare. A note in RPC: "Hill in BMC pointed out that the attribution to Agrippa II and even Judaea was not certain. XAΛKOYΣ occurs on the Neronian coinage of Antioch (4302), and Howgego proposed a re-attribution there (GIC 58, n. 32; the suggestion that the date might have been ϚΚ[P] is, however, wrong). This seems plausible, and the obvious occasion is in the reign of Augustus, where the same date formula occurs (year 26 = 6/5 BC)." Estimate: 150 USD |  |
