TROAS, Dardanos. 5th century BC. AV Hemistater – Half Daric (12mm, 3.90 g). Persic standard. Parallel lines across field / Cross-hatch pattern. Unpublished. Trace deposits, faint cleaning marks, edge loss. As made. Unique.
From the Dr. Adrian Carr Collection. Ex Classical Numismatic Review XLV.2 (Summer 2020), no. 539239; Jonathan P. Rosen Collection (Classical Numismatic Group 114, 13 May 2020), lot 324; Roma XIII (23 March 2017), lot 146.
This archaic issue had originally been offered as an electrum coin, but a recent thorough metal analysis of the coin by ANSTO in Australia has conclusively shown that it has a gold content of approximately 91.7% (this analysis is included with this lot). A connection to Dardanos had been proposed since the coin appeared, based on the cross-hatch pattern on the reverse, an unusual feature that is only known on an archaic issue that has been attributed to Dardanos featuring a cock on the obverse (cf. SNG Ashmolean 1119). This attribution has been strengthened by the metal analysis, which has found a minute amount of the rare element iridium, which has also been found in silver coins of Dardanos, but not in Lydian gold, which was the main source for gold coinage at the time. Although the weight of the coin is a little low for a Persic hemistater, there is clear evidence of some edge loss, which could account for the discrepancy of 0.2–0.3 grams. Interestingly, the cross-hatch silver coins, of which there is a unit (~0.65 grams) and half (~0.32 grams), appear to also have been struck on the 5th century Persic standard (with the silver siglos increased to 5.55 grams), equating to 1/8th and 1/16th sigloi, respectively. If this is correct, it implies a slightly later dating to the silver than the traditional late 6th/early 5th centuries, but if this gold coin is linked to the silver, a 5th century date would be more plausible.

Magnentius. AD 350-353. AV Solidus (21.5mm, 4.63 g, 6h). Treveri (Trier) mint. 1st emission, 18 January-27 February AD 350 . IM CAE MAGN ENTIVS AVG, bareheaded, draped, and cuirassed bust right / VICTORIA ‘ AVG ‘ LIB ‘ ROMANOR, Victory, draped, cradling palm frond in left arm, standing right, and Libertas, draped, holding transverse vindicta in left hand, standing left, both draped and together holding a trophy set on long staff between them with their right hands; TR.

From the Ramrodivs Collection. Ex Berk BBS 185 (9 July 2013), lot 32.
Born around A.D. 303 to a British father and Frankish mother, Flavius Magnus Magnentius showed enough talent to rise high in the Roman army. In the 340s, the western emperor Constans appointed Magnentius as commander in his personal guard. Whatever Magnentius’ merits, gratitude was not among them, for in January AD 350, he staged a successful coup deposing his benefactor. Constans, who had made himself unpopular with the army, attempted to flee to his brother Constantius II, emperor of the East, but was captured and executed. After securing control of Italy, Magnentius attempted to negotiate with Constantius, but the eastern emperor would hear none of it. Taking a year to marshal his forces, Constantius struck in the summer of AD 351, but Magnentius defeated his initial thrust into Italy and went on the offensive, seizing the strategic town of Siscia and forcing a major engagement in the Balkans. The clash at Mursa on September 28, AD 351 proved one of the costliest battles in Roman history, leaving the ground strewn with 55,000 dead. Magnentius fared much the worse and retreated into Gaul. Constantius took his time in pursuit, invading Italy the following year and methodically tightening the noose around Magentius, who was forced to take refuge in the city of Lugdunum. Rather than surrender, Magnentius fell on his sword in August of AD 353. Although a usurper, Magentius had a long-lasting impact on the Roman Empire through the agency of his young widow, Justina, who later married Valentinian I and became a lynchpin in future dynastic politics.

Para estimar un precio máximo de compra para la moneda en cuestión, podemos considerar varios factores basados en los datos proporcionados:
1. Precio de salida: 1725.75 euros. Este es el precio inicial que se establece para la subasta.
2. Precio medio de salida: 2749.41 euros. Este es el promedio de los precios de salida de monedas similares en subastas anteriores.
3. Precio medio de remate: 5688.45 euros. Este es el promedio de los precios finales a los que se han vendido monedas similares en el pasado.
4. Conservación de la moneda: 75 (Good VF). Esto indica que la moneda está en una buena condición, lo que puede influir positivamente en su valor.
Dado que la moneda tiene una buena conservación y considerando los precios medios de salida y remate, podemos hacer una estimación.
Un enfoque razonable sería tomar el precio medio de remate, que es 5688.45 euros, y ajustarlo a la conservación de la moneda. Dado que la conservación es buena (75), podríamos considerar que el precio podría estar en un rango más bajo que el promedio de remate, pero aún así bastante por encima del precio de salida.
Podríamos estimar un precio máximo de compra en un rango de 4000 a 5000 euros, teniendo en cuenta que la moneda tiene una buena conservación y que el precio de remate promedio es significativamente más alto que el precio de salida.
Por lo tanto, un precio estimado máximo de compra podría ser 4500 euros.
