Rx: Naked man on horseback riding left, holding reins and whip. Fischer-Bossert 194a (this coin, illustrated on pl. 11). Vlasto 272 (same dies). Obverse a bit weakly struck. Nicely toned. VF Ex NAC-CNG 40, 4 December 1996, lot 581. Ex Athos Moretti Collection 102. Ex Hesperia Art Bulletin 34 (1970s, but undated), lot 7 The horseman type made its first appearance on the coins of Tarentum in the mid-fifth century BC. Before then there had been only one figural type on Tarentine coins, usually the mythical dolphin rider. At first, the horseman was confined to the reverse and just supplemented the dolphin rider on the obverse. At the end of the fifth century, however, the two types switched sides, the horseman taking over the obverse and the dolphin rider retreating to the reverse. Since the horseman was never equipped with any of the attributes of a mythical figure, it seems likely that the type merely reflected the city`s pride in its cavalry and its devotion to equestrian contests

Seleucid Kingdom. Antiochus III. 223-187 BC. Tetradrachm, 16.88g (12h). Antioch, c. 223-211 BC. Obv: Diademed head of king right. Rx: ??S???OS ???????? Apollo Delphinios seated left on omphalos, holding arrow, other hand resting on bow; monogram in outer left field. SC 1042.1. WSM 1051. EF In the early years of his reign, Antiochos III consolidated the Seleucid empire. In 221 BC he crushed a revolt in Mesopotamia led by the usurper Molon. In 219- 217, he fought the Fourth Syrian War against Ptolemy IV, often with remarkable success but eventually being defeated in the battle at Raphia. Then he turned to Asia Minor. In 223 a Seleucid general, Achaios, had started reconquering large areas of western Asia Minor from the Attalids, but he eventually set himself up as king in Ionia. In 213 Antiochos captured Achaios` last refuge, Sardes, and had the usurper put to death. Our coin shows the portrait of a young but already experienced ruler who had seen both triumph and defeat

Album 1 Arab-Sassanian. Yazdgard Type. Year 20 (frozen, c. AH 31-45 or 651-665 AD). Drachm, 3.69g (3h). Obv: Crowned Sasanian-style bust right; bism allah in margin. Rx: Fire altar flanked by attendants; star and crescent flanking flames. Album 1. SICA 1, 353. VF/EF Ex FILL INEx Helianthus annuus Collection. Ex J. P. Righetti Collection, 90 This type is generally considered to be the earliest indisputably Islamic coin. Most of the coins bear the "frozen" date year 20, which is believed to have been struck without change over a 15-year period. They bear the portrait of the Sassasian ruler, Yazdgard, with the addition of the Islamic words bism Allah (In the name of Allah). The term Arab-Sassasian is a convenient description for such Islamic coins with Arabic and/or Pehlevi legends, but Sassasian types and denominations. These coins were issued by the Arabs who assumed the government of the Sassanian provinces after the overthrow of the monarchy. Yazdgard III, the last Sassanian monarch, was assassinated in 651 AD near Merv

Candelabrum, decorated with two rams` heads, within wreath of flowers. The wreath incorporates two bucrania and three pateras, one of which is directly above, almost resting on, the candelabrum. BM 684. Paris 1013. Cohen 2 (Caius Caesar, 30 Fr.). RIC 540 (R2). High relief portrait. Beautifully toned. Good EF Ex Berk 165, 28 July 2009, lot 302 Mattingly in BMC I (1923, pp. cxxvi f.) thought that the portrait of this coin must certainly represent a youthful Augustus rather than Caius Caesar, but he was unable to decide where and when the coin might have been struck and how it should be interpreted. Giard in his Paris catalogue (1976, p. 45) thought the youthful portrait and candelabrum reverse type might relate to the Saecular Games, so dated the coin to 17 BC. R. Prideaux (Triton XI, 8 January 2008, lot 829) suggested that the reverse type was actually funereal, so might refer to the death of Agrippa in Pannonia in 12 BC, the coin being an emergency issue produced in Pannonia for the army soon after that event
