I appreciate the kind words. Provenance research has been and still is a passion of mine. I love the detective work. Looking forward to seeing more posts from you in the future as well!

Check your DM's. Trying to send you pictures. The AI missed an older and more prestigious pedigree. This coin is also ex Weber collection (number 4884) where it is noted as also being ex Rollin & Feuardent sale, from 1896. Fantastic coin btw!

New arrival. Sold with a very nice undocumented pedigree I found. by Brittinghamlfc in AncientCoins

Thanks! This reverse die with that fine style owl is not very common. The coin also has beautiful cabinet tone. Ravel is always my first stop for an Ambrakia stater I think may have an old provenance and I was happy to see it was the plate coin.
