Auction 296 | Lot 11014 » Ancient Coins » Greek

Sicily, Motya. 405-397 B.C. AR tetradrachm. Eagle standing right, wing closed; above, Punic legend (ethnic or name of city)/Crab. 16.73 g. SNG ANS 499, cf. Jenkins (SNR 50) plate 5, 37-41 (these dies not listed). VF30 ICG, crystallization mainly confined to obverse.
This very rare coin was struck in an ancient town on a small island off the northwest of Sicily, Isola di Mezzo. Motya was founded by the Phoenicians (hence the Punic ethnic) and ceased to exist in 397 B.C., when it was destroyed by Dionysios of Syracuse. The coin imitates the types of Akragas (Agrigentum in Roman times), now Agrigento, where some of the finest preserved examples of extant Greek temples may be visited, my favorite being the Temple of Hera.

Similar to the above lot, but struck a bit later, the river-god Selinos is now of a finer, early classical style.

Auction 296 | Lot 11017 » Ancient Coins » Greek

Sicily, Syracuse. Circa 430-420 B.C. AR tetradrachm. Quadriga right being driven by charioteer; above, Nike flying right, crowning horses/Head right of Artemis-Arethusa with hair bound with cord wound four times; around, four dolphins. 17.32 g. Dewing 824, SNG ANS 223, Boehringer 674. VF25 ICG, typical worn obverse (quadriga side) die.
As much as we would like to consider the obverse as the "head" side (ICG decided to encapsulate this late transitional style head of Arethusa on the front), numismatists have a more scientific means for determining obverse and reverse on ancient coins. When the coin was struck, the lower, obverse (or anvil) die created a convexity of the metal, and the upper, reverse (or punch) die created a concave nature to the coin. Thus on most all issues, the boy on the dolphin type from Taras, the Artemis-Arethusa heads of Syracuse, and the Athena heads on Corinthian staters are all reverses and show concavity from being struck from the upper punch die.
