TRYPHON AR DRACHM, 142 - 138 B.C.E.

SC 2033e, Very Fine, somewhat rough, 18.1mm, 3.68 grams, Antioch on the Orontes Mint

Obverse: Diademed head of Tryphon to right

Reverse: Spiked Macedonian helmet with cheek guards, adorned with wild goat’s horn above visor, monogram to inner left, BAΣIΛEΩΣ TPYΦΩNOΣ AYTOKPATOPOΣ to sides

Pretty even light silver tone on this coin (contrast exaggerated by photo). Rough but still pretty pleasant looking in hand! RARE with only 2 coins of this attribution represented in acsearch.
