TROAS, Larissa(?). 3rd century BC. Æ 13mm (2.06 g, 1h). Laureate head of Apollo right / Amphora; double cornucopia to left. Cf. SNG Copenhagen 790 (Lebedos; eagle in place of double cornucopia); cf. SNG von Aulock 2026 (Lebedos; no symbol). VF, green patina with some red.


From the D. Alighieri Collection.

While commonly attributed to Lebedos in Ionia, this has been rejected by some on the basis of style, types, and provenance. L. Robert places them at Larissa in Troas.
