From the collection of the MoneyMuseum, Zurich. Ex Superior (December 1996), lot 1433.This beautiful gold stater belongs to the period following the death of Alexander the Great when his half-brother, Philip III Arrhidaios, was the nominal head of state together with the conqueror`s infant son by Roxane, Alexander IV. The gem-like delicacy of the engraving of these extraordinary dies singles this issue out as belonging to one of the mints of the Ionian coastal region of western Asia Minor, an area which, of course, was not controlled by the Macedonian monarchy in the time of Philip II. Kolophon is the city to which it is tentatively attributed, the tripod symbol linking it to an issue in the name of Philip III (cf. Price P41).

The present issue, however, was the earliest to employ the die, as evidenced by the very faint appearance of the break on all the known examples of this issue.

Extremely rare first issue of staters, one of only three known, the other two being the de Luynes (BN) and Triton XII pieces. At the time of Frolova & Ireland’s publication (2002), there were 16 known specimens of Pharnakes’ gold staters (plus three forgeries). Twelve specimens have since appeared at auction, bringing the known population of these very rare pieces to 28, of which about 10 are in museums. The present coin is one of only two examples of the first year of issue available in the marketplace.Pharnakes was awarded the Bosporan Kingdom by Pompey for the betrayal of Pharnakes’ father Mithradates VI, King of Pontos. Little is known of Pharnakes’ sixteen-year reign except for its ending. During the Civil War between Pompey and Julius Caesar, Pharnakes tried to recapture his father`s former territories in Pontos. He won a victory over Caesar`s general, Domitius Calvinus, and ordered Romans in the region castrated or put to the sword. In response, Caesar launched a rapid five day war against Pharnakes in 47 BC, culminating in the battle of Zela. Caesar emerged victorious, prompting him to report back to the Senate with the now famous dictum, "Veni, Vidi, Vici" (I came, I saw, I conquered).
Lot 601
IONIA, Achaemenid Period. Tiribazos. Satrap of Lydia, 388-380 BC. Æ (11.5mm, 1.73 g, 12h). Klazomenai mint. Head right, wearing kyrbasia / Tripod; K?A to right. Unpublished. VF, dark brown patina. Apparently unique. Ex Classical Numismatic Group Electronic Auction 278 (25 April 2012), lot 102.While the satrapal portrait on this coin cannot be identified as an exact representation of Tiribazos, the extreme stylistic similarity between satrapal issues of Cilicia struck during the time of Tiribazos’ rule there (cf. Casabonne pl. 4, 4–6), a contemporary bronze issue from Sardis (cf. Klein 254), and the portrait here suggests that this coin was an issue struck under Tiribazos.Initially the satrap of Western Armenia, which was one of the main Persian satrapies, the Persian general, Tiribazos, was a highly regarded ally of Artaxerxes II, who granted him a number of additional satrapies during the course of his career. During the civil war with Cyrus the Younger, as related in The Anabasis of Xenophon, Tiribazos sided with Artaxerxes II, a move for which he was richly rewarded. When the vassal-king of Cilicia sided with Cyrus the Younger and was thereby dethroned because of it, the territory became an ordinary satrapy under the sphere of influence of the satrap of Western Armenia. Shortly thereafter, Tiribazos was appointed satrap of Western Asia (with its capital at Sardis), which was another of the main satrapies of the Persian Empire. It too counted a number of smaller regional districts under its sphere of influence. Among these smaller districts were the cities of Ionia, including Klazomenai. The influence of this satrapy and of Tiribazos in particular was such that he personally brokered negotiations between the the belligerent Greek states during the Corinthian War (395-387 BC). Although Tiribazos was briefly replaced by the satrap Struthas in punishment for his actions, Artaxerxes soon returned the ex-satrap to his post in 387/6 BC. This time, he was granted command of the Persian fleet against Evagoras of Salamis. Again, Tiribazos was punished for his actions, and again restored to favor. The subsequent reneging by Artaxerxes of favors on Tiribazos turned the satrap against his king. In the end, Artaxerxes caught wind of a plot by Tirbazos and had his once-esteemed courtier slain.
