16.99 gms. Pr-181. Obverse: Head of Herakles, right; wearing lion skin; Reverse: Zeus seated holding eagle. Exceptional coin, with near perfect striking and fine style portraiture. The high relief design only complements the look and color, with a glossy finish as a result of years of care. A little bit of corrosion was removed on the reverse toward the top of the flan, but it does not detract from the beauty of the obverse style.
