AR Tetradrachm, 17.17g. c.300-290 B.C. Horse head to left; palm tree behind; Punic inscription, "people of the camp," below. Jenkins 323 (this coin listed).
Lovely old cabinet toning and struck in high relief on both sides. Extremely Fine.
This is a choice example of the finest early Hellenistic Greek art and with an impeccable pedigree.
