Non c'è mercato: a titolo indicativo e personale direi sui 100 euro. Nelle aste le quotazioni possono salire se c’è concorrenza tra due o più collezionisti interessati a questi “muli”.

A proposito di "mule" alessandrine...

Sono note imitazioni dei tetradrammi di Alessandro coniate da zecche dell’Arabia dell’Est (Mleiha, Gerrha) nel 250-200 a. C. circa. La tipologia ricalca in genere quella classica, con la testa di Eracle che indossa un copricapo in pelle di leone sul diritto e Zeus seduto sul trono con lo scettro nella mano sinistra e la mano destra estesa sul rovescio.

Sul diritto di questa imitazione battuta alla CNG 217 è raffigurata la testa di Alessandro deificato, con il corno di Zeus Ammone e quindi, non credo intenzionalmente, è stata prodotta una “mula” in quanto le due facce sono destinate a monete diverse, una di Lisimaco e una di Alessandro.

Segue descrizione moneta precedente


From the Martin Huth Collection. Ex Frankfurter Münzhandlung E. Button 109 (2 December 1963), 2101 (incorrectly described).

Martin Huth provides the following note:
After a first examination by Robin ("Monnaies provenant de l’Arabie du nord-est," Semitica 24 [1974], pp. 83-127) and Callot ("Les monnaies dites ‘arabes’ dans le nord du Golfe arabo-persique à la fin du IIIeme siècle avant notre ère" in: Y. Calvet & J. Gachet-Bizollon, Failaka: Fouilles Françaises 1986-1988 [Lyon: Maison de l'Orient, 1990], pp. 221-40), the tetradrachms with the full legend of Shams in South Arabian characters were examined, together with other classes of ‘Arabian Alexanders’, in 1990 by C. Arnold-Biucchi who knew of five specimens: three from the 1970 Bahrain hoard (O. Mørkholm, "New Coin Finds from Failaka" in Kuml 8 [1972], pp. 183-202; these are now in the Bahrain Museum), one in the Bibliothèque Nationale in Paris, and one in the Vienna collection. To these must be added the two pieces in the recently published Huth collection (Huth 106 and 106a). Two of the seven coins (Vienna and Huth 106) show the throne with a back rest, while the others lack this feature.

With D. Potts (The Arabian Gulf in Antiquity. Vol II: From Alexander the Great to the Coming of Islam [Oxford: Oxford UP, 1990]) having convincingly established modern-day Thaj in Eastern Saudi Arabia as the site of the ancient mercantile town of Gerrha, considerable progress in the study of these and related coins has been made with Callot’s ("A New Chronology for the Arabian Alexanders" in CCK, pp. 383-402) publication of a revised chronology for the Arabian Alexanders. According to Callot, Gerrha had already been an important settlement on the trade route connecting the Gulf with South Arabia and India when the Seleukids (Seleukos I and Antiochos I) installed themselves in the north of the Gulf and founded the fortress of Ikaros/Failaka (in modern-day Kuwait). Seleukid power in the region, however, rapidly declined with the beginning of the rule of Seleukos II (246-226), and the famous rebellion of Molon in 222 (just after the accession of Antiochos III) unsettled Seleukid Mesopotamia, causing a breakdown of control over the traditional caravan routes. Gerrha thus became the leading regional power, and asserted its independence by issuing its own coins modelled on Seleukid coinage of Alexander type, but adding the name of the local supreme deity, Shams, in full. Other territories under Gerrhaean influence followed suit, with Ikaros/Failaka producing tetradrachms and obols with a vertical shin, and two otherwise unknown Arab chieftains, Abyatha and Harithat, issuing coins with their own names. Thus started the long series of Alexander imitations, most of which were produced in the name of various queens with the name of Abi’el (cf. Potts and Potts Suppl. for general study of this coinage; cf. M.C.A. Macdonald, "The ‘Abiel’ coins of Eastern Arabia: A study of the Aramaic Legends" in CCK, pp. 403-548, for Abi’el as a female ruler).

Shams/Shamash is a sun-deity of Mesopotamian origin, viewed as a male in Northeast Arabia and a female in South Arabia. While Robin, Mørkholm, Potts, Callot, and Arnold-Biucchi held differing views as to whether the seated figure actually represented the deity, Huth (“Gods and Kings: On the Imagery of Arabian Coinage” in CCK, pp. 107-24) has followed Mørkholm and Robin in associating the figure with the deity.

SELEUKID EMPIRE. Seleukos I Nikator & Antiochos I Soter. Joint Reign, 294-281 BC. AV Stater (16mm, 7.06 g, 6h). In the types of Alexander III of Macedon. Indian standard. Aï Khanoum mint.

Unique.

Est. $30,000 - Starting Bid: $18,000 - SOLD $40,000


In 294 BC, Seleukos I made his son, Antiochos I, co-ruler. At the time, his domains stretched from Asia Minor to India, and Seleukos had spent most of the preceding decade in the west, at first fighting against Antigonos I Monophthalmos and later consolidating his gains by founding a number of cities throughout the Levant. This concentration on the west resulted in a degradation of Seleukid authority in the east, which culminated in a nationalist revolt in Persis in 295 BC, which became the first province to secede from the empire. It was likely this event that led Seleukos to elevate his son, whose new remit was to govern the eastern territories as his father's viceroy. Over the next fifteen years, Antiochos reestablished Seleukid authority in Persis, and extended to the Upper Satrapies the policy of consolidation that his father implemented in the west.

During the coregency, many of the mints of the east began to strike coins in the name of Antiochos for at least some issues, while Seleukos's name was retained on others. However, at Aï Khanoum there is a multi-denominational series of silver coins struck on the lighter Indian standard that exceptionally depict the names of both kings (SC 279–282). The present stater, also struck on the Indian standard, is the first, and only known, gold stater for this series, and from the mint of Aï Khanoum during the reign of Seleukos I. This Indian weight standard series is still shrouded in mystery. Its specific purpose has been long debated, but likely has to do with the intended area of circulation and recipient of this coinage; it was probably intended for use in trade that was flowing toward India. However, one question that has not been addressed well is: Why was this the only instance of a coinage with the names of both kings? Certainly, Seleukos's name would be instantly recognizable to an Indian recipient, but his name was already on the issues of Aï Khanoum; it is Antiochos's that was added. Perhaps it was necessary from a diplomatic perspective for promoting Antiochos's position, given that this was apparently a coinage specifically intended for trade outside the Empire? In any case, this is the only instance during Antiochos's viceroyalty where this occurred, and it also is an irrefutable statement confirming the relationship of the two kings, not as senior and junior partners, but as co-rulers.

First Gold Coin of Seleukid Baktria // One of Two in Private Hands

SELEUKID KINGS of SYRIA. Seleukos I Nikator. 312-281 BC. AV Stater (8.51 g, 10h). Uncertain mint 19 in Baktria (Baktra?). Struck circa 290/86-281 BC.

EF, reverse slightly off center. Extremely rare, one of six known (all from one pair of dies), of which four are in museums (London, Berlin, and two in Miho).

Sale: Triton X, Lot: 389. Estimate $50000. Sold For $40000

The extraordinary types on this inaugural gold coinage for Seleukid Baktria have particular dynastic and historical importance to the Seleukids. Apollo, who appears on the obverse of this issue, was the patron god of the royal house, and the official ancestor of Seleukos. His representation in the form of Apollo Delphios became the primary reverse type for the Seleukid precious metal coinage over the next century. The elephant chariot reverse type was introduced in the Seleukid coinage at Seleukeia on the Tigris and Susa around the tenth anniversary of the conclusion of Seleukos’ Indian campaign in 305 BC, and the type was assimilated at most mints thereafter. In the settlement with Chandragupta, Seleukos was given 500 war elephants which directly contributed to his success over the Antigonids at the battle of Ipsos in 301 BC. The elephant biga type was therefore an important representation of Seleukid power, but it was also a link to Seleukos’ predecessor in the east, Alexander the Great, whose exploits in India were often commemorated in coinage by elephant biga types.

Darico di Seleuco I Nicatore (CNG 91)

Third Known Seleukos Daric

SELEUKID KINGS of SYRIA. Seleukos I Nikator. 312-281 BC. AV Daric (14mm, 8.08 g, 1h). Uncertain mint in Babylonia. Struck circa 300-298 BC. Head of the deified Alexander right, wearing elephant skin / Nike standing left, holding wreath in extended right hand and cradling stylis in left arm; in left field horned horse head right [above monogram]. Cf. SC 101; HGC 9, 8; O. Bopearachchi, “Two unreported coins from the second Mir Zakah deposit” in ONS Newsletter 165 (Autumn 2000), p. 15 (this coin). Good VF, struck from worn obverse die, flan flaw on obverse (but see below). Extremely rare, the third known daric of Seleukos I.

Ex 1992 Mir Zakah Hoard.

CNG 91, Lot: 351. Estimate $10000. Sold for $6000.


Bopearachchi incorrectly describes the coin as having an obverse of Herakles wearing lion skin, and notes the weight as being equivalent to an Attic stater. At the same time, he thinks that the coin was overstruck on an Achaemenid daric, with the incuse of the original coin causing the “flan flaw” on the obverse. Accepting this as correct, the coin would not be equivalent to the Attic stater, which was around 8.5-8.6 grams at the time, but to the standard of the daric, which was around 8.2-8.3 grams. Even after the conquest of Alexander III, the Achaemenid daric was the primary local gold coin in the east (see G. Le Rider, Alexander the Great: Coinage, Finances, and Policy [Philadelphia, 2007], pp. 242–6), and coinage for local use was struck on this standard at Babylon, a practice that was continued under Seleukos I (Babylon II mint in SC). The authors of SC attribute this particular series of darics to a mint in Babylonia (possibly even a workshop in the old Babylon mint), while Bopearachchi prefers a mint further to the east, perhaps in Baktria.

Il Price colloca i due precedenti stateri Price 3735 e 3736 con il monogramma MP in ghirlanda sotto l’ala sinistra della Nike nel gruppo delle emissioni babilonesi tra il 317 e il 311 a. C., al tempo del regno di Antigono I Monoftalmo in Mesopotamia, mentre assegna a Seleuco I Nicatore le emissioni successive (gruppo col simbolo MI) da ca. 311 a. C. a ca. 305 a. C., quando questo sovrano riacquistò il potere (es. lo statere Price 3745).

Anche questa imitazione dello statere Price 3735, tra l’altro erroneamente attribuito a Seleuco I Nicatore come è stato sottolineato in precedenza, ha destato l’interesse dei collezionisti.
