Aegina stater (Obv)

Nice chunk of silver (thick flan it seems).

Was looking (only looking) at these recently. This is a very attractive example.

Yes, Mark, it has a really thick flan, which is only 17mm in diameter. The turtle is very well-centered, and there aren't any edge cracks, either, which is unusual for the type. The reverse deposits are much less prominent in person, too. It has quickly become one of my favorites.

Thanks, Clay. I've waited a long time to get one.
