From the Giovanni Maria Staffieri Collection; ex Italo Vecchi, Bern, September 1990.
From the pen of G.M.S.: The Egyptian conquest and colonization of the important neighboring island of Cyprus and the eastern Phoenician coasts of the Mediterranean gave rise to a series of local coins to which this bronze belongs—small in size, of uncertain minting, but of excellent style and splendid preservation. The obverse here depicts the portrait of Herakles with the lion's skin, while the reverse features the Ptolemaic eagle, both images bathed in a brilliant original brown patina.

From the Giovanni Maria Staffieri Collection; privately purchased from Numismatica Aretusa SA - Franco Chiesa, Lugano, in October 1982.
From the pen of G.M.S.: Alexandrian Ptolemaic bronzes, particularly those struck during the 3rd and 2nd centuries BC in the highest denominations, were not only a means of exchange but also a testament to Egypt's political power and economic opulence. The obverse typically features the image of Zeus Ammon, the dynasty's favored deity, which is particularly striking on well-preserved specimens such as ours.

A beautiful specimen with an attractive portrait. About Extremely Fine. Very Rare.
Mithradates I, the first Parthian king to adopt the Achaemenid title “King of Kings,” transformed Parthia from a minor satrapy into a formidable empire. Following the capture of Seleukeia on the Tigris in 141 BC, he repurposed its major Hellenistic mint for his own royal issues. The resulting tetradrachms, stylistically Greek, feature a powerful bearded portrait and a reverse depicting Herakles—drawing a parallel between the hero’s labors and the king’s achievements. The Greek legends name him “Great King Arsakes” and “Friend of the Greeks,” a clear gesture to win over his Hellenized subjects.
