Good Day here is my silver Tetradrachm. This coin is one of 13 known tetradrachms of the Parthenon Group and one of only five in private ownership, from family heritage.21mm 16.1g Ultra-high relief

I am embarrassed because for sure to have a tetradrachm from Amphipolis from the Parthenon group is really extraordinary... you are a rich man if this one is genuine. But I doubt it very much because the style looks really wrong. So, I would be very cautious and require an expertise, from David Sear for instance. But I would be very cautious before being too happy ! I would like to give you a better feedback, but I cannot

You can also look at the excellent book of catharine c. Lorber « Amphipolis : the civil coinage » in which all the main types are given

I agree if genuine and very rare and valuable coin. I recommend you send it off to David sear for certification. https://www.davidrsear.com/certification.html

In a 2011 auction, one brought $826,000 (including buyer's fee) against a pre-sale estimate of $200,000.
