UTMOST RARITY UNPUBLISHED-- Komama, Pisidia, 1st Century B.C.

There are no coins from Komama, coin experts will tell you. There are three known exceptions. This coin is one of them:

A recent CNG auction identified their example of this type as only the second known silver coin of Komama. This hemidrachm type is the only known silver silver struck by Komama, all examples of which were struck from a single pair of dies, and of which only a single von Aulock specimen is published.

Silver hemidrachm, Von Aulock, KM VI, 1 (all known examples, including this coin, from the same dies); otherwise unpublished, F, 1.721g, 14.3mm, 0o, Komama mint, 1st Century B.C.; obverse diademed head of Artemis right, K behind; reverse "KOMA-MEWN", long torch; bumpy surfaces caused by an ancient fire. EXTREMELY, EXTREMELY RARE!!!

You will not see one of these again!

The fire in which this coin found itself in antiquity was the result of the burning, sacking and pillaging of the town. Psychic sensitives should be aware that this is the rough equivalent of thousands of crime scenes all at once. Not for the squeamish.
