Greek, Lucania, Thourioi, c. 350-300 BC, silver triobol (12 mm, 1.23 g). Athena facing right wearing helmet decorated with Skylla/Bull right, control mark club in exergue.
All triobols of this series, with their obverse dies in the style of the coins of Tarentum, and the reverse dies bearing a control mark in the exergue, are very rare. The other control marks known are owl, grain ear, dolphin and two dolphins.
about VF, roughness, old toning, struck off-centre. Of the highest rarity, possibly unique.
Unpublished to our knowledge, but cf. SNG Lockett 526 for another coin of the same series (but with dolphin rather than club control mark).
