SELEUKID KINGS. Antiochos III ‘the Great’, 222-187 BC. Tetradrachm (Silver, 25 mm, 17.16 g, 12 h), Soli, 197-187. Diademed head of Antiochos III to right. Rev. ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ - ΑΝΤΙΟΧΟΥ Apollo seated left on omphalos, holding arrow in his right hand and resting his left on grounded bow to left, monogram of AΘ above grape bunch; to right, monogram of AI. SC 1021.1. Very fine.


While Houghton and Lorber suspected a right field control for SC 1021.1, it was off flan on the specimens available to them. This piece clearly shows a right field control possibly related to the monogram used on the owl symbol issue SC 1021.2.
