ID:     3900226      [UNVERIFIED] Type:     Greek Region:     LYCIAN DYNASTS Issuer:     Uncertain Dynast Date Ruled:     550-440 BC Metal:     Silver Denomination:     Stater Struck / Cast:     struck Date Struck:     circa 6th century BC Diameter:     15.3 mm Weight:     8.93 g Obverse Description:     Boar's head right; pellets behind. Reverse Description:     Incuse square; a series of dot's and geometric patterns within. Primary Reference:     Unpublished(?) Photograph Credit:     Calgary Coin Source:     http://calgarycoin.com Grade:     gVF Notes:     This attribution to the early Lycian Dynasts is not certain but probable. Their coins normally have the forepart of a Boar, including the forelegs, while this coin shows only a boar's head, however the general style is early Lycian. There is a Lycian 1/3 silver stater (Sear 3581) that also shows a boar's head without the forelegs.
