| Beschrijving voorzijde | Helmeted head of Perseus facing right, wearing a Corinthian-style helmet with cheek guards. The harpa, the distinctive curved sword associated with Perseus, is visible to the right of the bust. The portrait is rendered in a bold, compact style typical of island mint bronzes of the Hellenistic period, with strong facial relief and a slightly rough flan edge. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Seriphos — a small, rocky Cycladic island best known in antiquity for the Perseus myth and for its silver mines — produced a very limited civic bronze coinage, making any survivor scarce by default. This issue falls within a period when the island was nominally under Macedonian, then Rhodian, then Roman influence, cycling through external powers without ever producing the volume of coinage that larger Aegean centers managed.
The Weber 4711 reference ties this piece to the famous Hermann Weber collection, dispersed by Sotheby's between 1898 and 1909 — one of the most significant private Greek coin collections ever assembled.
