PTOLEMAIC KINGS of EGYPT. Ptolemy I Soter. As satrap, 323-305 BC. AV Stater (18mm, 8.55 g, 12h). In the name and types of Alexander III of Macedon. Memphis or Alexandreia mint. Struck circa 323/2-317/1 BC. Head of Athena right, wearing crested Corinthian helmet decorated with coiled serpent / Nike standing left, holding wreath in extended right hand and cradling stylis in left arm; in left field, ram's head right, wearing anedjty-crown, symbolizing Amun-Re; [monogram below left wing]. Svoronos 5; Zervos Issue 73; Price 3963; SNG Copenhagen (Macedon) 642; NGSA 7, lot 175 (same dies). Good VF.This coin is from one of the earliest gold issues of Ptolemy I. The symbol on the reverse has conventionally thought to represent the Egyptian diety Khnum, but a recent study has convincingly shown that it is, in fact, meant to represent the sun-god Amun-Re (see K. Sheedy and B. Ockinga, "The Crowned Ram's Head on Coins of Alexander the Great and the Rule of Ptolemy as Satrap of Egypt" in P. Wheatly and E. Baynham, eds., East and West in the World Empire of Alexander. Essays in Honour of Brian Bosworth [Oxford: Oxford UP, 2015], pp. 197–239). Description

GAUL, Northeast. Ambiani. Circa 58-55 BC. AV Stater (16.5mm, 5.49 g). Gallic War issue. Plain bulge / Disjointed horse right; crescents and pellets around. Depeyrot, NC VI, 161; D&T 239; SCBC 11. Good VF, toned.From the MM Collection. Ex Classical Numismatic Group 66 (19 May 2004), lot 4. Reportedly found in West Sussex.As their name implies, Gallic War staters were issued to fund the fight against Julius Caesar in Gaul. Two explanations for the blank obverse have been suggested: firstly, to signify that the coins were minted by a coalition of tribes – 'headless' in other words – and, secondly, to speed up the production process, because the coins were often made in a hurry. The latter rationale seems to be more plausible. Description
