Bob L will tell you right away if such a coin exists and link you to it if it does. https://www.acsearch.info/search.ht...usd&company= Report this Post to the Staff

louisvillekyshop CCF Advertiser United States 1304 Posts	Posted 06/26/2020 09:37 am My point originally with my comment of "if some coin exists" is I don't think this pattern occurs that I can find on a coin hemidrachm or drachm weight coin. There is a bronze over 7 gram unit of Eukratides II and of course the Tetradrachm with the pattern so I was thinking it was more of a fantasy piece? There are small silver coins but were any struck with this pattern? Report this Post to the Staff
