Beschreibung

c. 255-241 BC, Year 6. Tetradrachm, 15.26g (12h). Obv: Laureate head of Artemis right, bow and quiver behind neck. Rx: APTEMIΔOΣ / ΠEPΓAIAΣ Artemis standing left holding wreath and scepter, at her feet large star, above the star date C=6. Apparently unpublished from Year 6, and with star replacing the normal stag at Artemis' feet. This coin apparently belongs to Seyrig's Group 1, which he dates to c. 255-241 BC, Revue Numismatique 1963, pp. 49-50. Seyrig records tetradrachms of Years 2, 5, 9-11, and 13, but none of Year 6 like ours. All of Seyrig's examples show a stag at Artemis' feet, except his no. 21, where a sphinx replaces the stag. Seyrig knew no coins with a star replacing the stag, though on his no. 18a a star appears in the outer right field, behind Artemis.
