CORINTHIA. Corinth. Circa 375-300 BC. Stater (Silver, 22 mm, 8.55 g, 11 h). Pegasos flying left; below, Ϙ. Rev. Head of Athena to left, wearing Corinthian helmet; below chin, Δ; behind neck guard, I and Artemis running right, holding torch in her right hand and two spears in her left. BCD Corinth -. Calciati 453 corr. ('Artemis holding two torches'). HGC 4, 1848. Ravel 1077 corr. ('Artemis holding two torches'). A few faint scratches and the obverse struck slightly off center, otherwise, nearly extremely fine.


What makes this coin particularly interesting is that Artemis clearly does not hold two torches in her hands, as it is always described in the literature, but a torch in her right hand and two javelins in her left.
