maridvnvm Posted October 11, 2022 · Member Share Posted October 11, 2022 @DonnaMLIn response to your question - I cited the denomination as provided by the dealer who sold it to me. Interestingly he called it a stater back in 2010 but when he later sold it for me some years later called it a drachm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
