"This is a well known Boeotian overstrike on an Antigonid bronze. See Kroll pp. 189-190 for the definitive attribution of the undertype to Antigonos Gonatas and p. 205 for dating these coins to the "late 3rd (or early 2nd?) century BC" together with a suggestion that the overstriking took place after the death of Demetrios II in 229. See also E. Vlachogianni, "A hoard of coins from Thebes," NomKhron 19 (2000), pp. 55-113, for the publication of a hoard of these bronzes, updated bibliography and arguments in favor of the overstrike taking place in the 220's BC"  +

3337 - Phlius (AE bull/phi) over Syracuse (Arethusa/octopus) (LHS, 96, May 2006, 94) +
Said to have been found in the northern Peloponnesos. The bronze coinage of Phlious has hitherto been thought to have begun c. 400, but there can be no doubt that the present coin was struck somewhat earlier. The fact that the reverse was struck from a die used to produce silver hemidrachms of the 420s (an amazing occurrence in itself), has to link the coins rather closely in time; but the identity of the undertype makes this coin truly spectacular! Clearly visible on the present reverse, around the incuse square of the Phliasian type, are what appear to be the waving tentacles of an octopus (!), with, in one case, a large pellet between them. This can be nothing other than one of the early (c. 425) onkiai of Syracuse, as Calciati 1(1/20 is a particularly good match) and SNG ANS 376-381: the weight and size is exactly correct (traces of the original obverse can also be seen). Since the original coin is apparently little worn, it must have arrived in Greece shortly after it was issued. This could have occurred around the time of the Peace of Nikias in 421, or after the Athenian defeat at Syracuse in 413, when western travelers would have been easily able to reach Peloponnesian ports without fear of the Athenian fleet. The second known example of this coin is in the Ashmolean, from where BCD received a photograph of it twenty years ago. It was struck from another pair of dies but is clearly overstruck on another Syracusan onkia.  +
