XXIII, 215 (these dies); L. Mildenberg, Mithrapata and Perikles, Proceedings of the 8th International Numismatic Congress, Rome 1961 (1965), 21). Reverse die a little worn, a wonderful portrait of exceptional classical style, good very fine. This coin published in ‘The Coin Hoard from Podalia’, Olçay & Mørkholm, NC (1971), 398; and in SNG Sammlung Hans von Aulock, 4250. From the Podalia Hoard (IGCH 1262) Ex Hans von Aulock Collection, 4250 Purchased from Spink & Son Ltd., London, 31 March 1988 The Lycian coinage of Mithrapata and Perikle bear dynastic portraits of superb style. On the above coin the influence of the facing Syracusan coinage can be seen. The dynast is represented in an idealised classical style, looking out from the coin with serene majesty, his hair flowing freely around him. The portrait almost imitates the rendering of immortal beings found on other facing head coinage. These remarkable issues were unfortunately short-lived, and they appear to have come to an end after the invasion of Lycia by Maussollos in around 360 B.C. US$ 3,000
