As most of you know. I've posted this coin before. I think, I found a die match. I guess that might be expected since this is a rare issue.

The latter two were sold by big time auction houses.

I've only got time for a cursory look at these now, TC, but I think you may be right. The varied degrees of wear make the assessment a bit challenging, but there do seem to be a lot of correspondences. Nicely spotted.

Agreed, that's why I posted. Just to get second opinions.

What is the reverse creature? A harpy?

I haven't seen that one before.
