The Prospero Collection of Ancient Greek Coins. BITHYNIA. Kios (c.340-330 B.C.), Gold Stater, 8.57g,. Magistrate Agathokles. Head of Apollo facing to right, wearing a laurel-wreath. Rev. AΓAΘO / K ΛHΣ , prow of war galle y to left, ornamented with a star, a club above, an eagle stands on left facing to left (Waddington, Recueil Général, p. 311, 1, pl. XLIX, 1 (this reverse die)). A few marks, a light scrape on the edge at 9 o’clock, otherwise nearly extremely fine with lustre on the reverse, extremely rare, very few staters of Kios are recorded and this is perhaps the second known example of this magistrate, an important coin. Purchased from Spink & Son Ltd., London, 20 January 1988 The cataloguer can find only one other example, as referred to above, of a stater struck from this reverse die and by this magistrate. It has been suggested that the Waddington example, a little off-centre on its reverse, might read AΓAΣIKΛHΣ, or possibly AΓAΘOKΛHΣ (p. 311). The above coin clearly shows that the magistrate’s name on this die is AΓAΘOKΛHΣ and therefore resolves the uncertainty of the Waddington example. US$ 35,000
