SELEUKID EMPIRE. Antiochos III ‘the Great’. 222-187 BC. AR Tetradrachm (28mm, 16.54 g, 12h). Uncertain mint 49, in Phrygia, possibly Apameia. Diademed head right / Apollo, testing arrow and placing hand on grounded bow, seated left on omphalos; club to outer left. SC 1002.2; HGC 9, 447j. Toned, minor deposits. VF. Very rare.

From the MNL Collection. Ex Gorny & Mosch 228 (9 March 2015), lot 160.

Although this is an example of SC 1002.2, the style is closer to the subsequent issue at the mint, SC 1003. As noted in the Addenda to SC I in SC II, there is a possibility that the issues of Uncertain Mint 49 were actually struck by the Galatians.
