From the collection of Regierungsrat Dr. iur. Hans Krähenbühl, Leu 8, 23 October 2021, 14, previously privately acquired from Münzen & Medaillen AG on 31 May 1974, and from the collection of C. Gillet ('Kunstfreund', 1879-1972), photofile no. 315.
The high Classical tetradrachms from Rhegion are among the most impressive coins struck in Magna Graecia: they combine the finest Greek style with an exceptionally high relief on the city's coat of arms, the facing head of a lion. On the reverse of this particular example, the beautiful image of Apollo is accompanied by the signature of the master engraver Kratesippos.
