The Prospero Collection of Ancient Greek Coins. MYSIA. Kyzikos (c.450-400 B.C.), Electrum Stater, 16.11g. Male figure (Odysseus?), wearing a pilos and a chlamys, kneeling to left, in the act of sacrificing a ram, a tunny below. Rev. Quadripartite incuse square of mill-sail pattern (W. Greenwell, ‘The Electrum Coinage of Cyzicus’, NC 1887, 71, pl. III, 22; Von Fritze, Nomisma VII, 156, pl. V, 4). A fascinating mythological type, well-centred on a broad flan, toned, very f ine. Purchased from Spink & Son Ltd., London, 16 April 1988 The identity of the figure on the obverse of this coin has been widely debated. It has been suggested that it could be Phrixos, in the act of sacrificing the ram with the golden fleece. However, on the basis of the pilos, Odysseus, shown sacrificing the animal provided by Circe before his descent into Hades, has also been suggested. US$ 20,000
