Dealer Frank S. Robinson will conduct his 86th mail auction of ancient and early coins with a closing date of Nov. 27.
The sale will consist of 428 lots, mostly without reserves, with bids to be reduced as competition permits. Reductions averaged 26 percent in his previous sale, Robinson noted.
Noteworthy among Greek coins in the sale are a classic Athenian owl tetradrachm in EF, a Baktrian tetradrachm of Eukratides I graded AEF/VF+, an EF Chalkidian League tetrobol, a VF Pontius Pilate bronze, and a rare Koson drachm with types of Amphipolis tetradrachms.
In the Roman section, bidders will find a denarius of Julius Caesar and Augustus, a VF+ Agrippa As, a Caligula As graded EF/VF+, one of Claudius in VF+ with LIBERTAS reverse, and an AEF/VF Vitellius denarius with reverse tripod.
