A modern replica of one of antiquity's most admired coin types — the Syracusan tetradrachm produced under Dionysios I and his successors in the late fifth and early fourth centuries BC, where competing engravers including Kimon and Euainetos signed their dies, an almost unparalleled practice in the ancient world. The original issues were struck to the Attic weight standard to facilitate trade across the Greek Mediterranean.
