Why This Coin Matters

This tetradrachm from Cyme stands out immediately — not just for its condition, but for its artistry and subject. The Amazon depicted on the obverse is tied to the city’s legendary origins, setting this coin apart from the more common gods and rulers seen across Greek coinage.

Struck in the mid-2nd century BC, this piece reflects a mature Hellenistic world — a time when local identity, mythology, and artistic expression were at their peak. Cities like Cyme used coinage not just for commerce, but to tell their story.

The reverse, featuring a horse within a wreath, reinforces themes of strength, victory, and prestige. Combined with the refined style noted on this example, it represents the height of Greek minting craftsmanship.

Graded About Uncirculated (AU) with a 5/5 strike, this coin shows exceptional sharpness and detail rarely seen in ancient silver. The 3/5 surface reflects minor imperfections typical for ancient coins, while the fine style designation highlights its superior artistic quality.

This is not just a coin — it is a museum-level piece from over 2,100 years ago.

Perfect for:

Collectors of high-grade Greek silver coinage
Advanced collectors seeking artistic and rare types
History enthusiasts of Greek mythology and city identity
Anyone looking for a standout, premium ancient coin
