Archaios | Caria Mylasa EUPOLEMOS Overlapped Shields and Sword | AE| Inv#63.2

Description: Archaios Numismatics Description: Greek Bronze coin from Mylasa Caria in Asia Minor in the name of Eupolemos (the Macedonian General under Cassander) Circa 314 B.C. Obverse: Three (3) Overlapped Macedonian Shields with a Spearheads on each of the shield Bosses Reverse: Sword in Scabbard with strap; EYПO-ΛEMOY around and Labrys (double headed axe) in RIGHT field Mint: Mylasa, Caria Size: 17 mm Weight: 4.2 g Ref: SNG Copenhagen 1166 / 1167 BMC Caria Pl XXI.12; Condition: gF. I find the overlapping shields to be a very unique and appealing die design not duplicated to my knowledge outside this one type. As always, Please use the Pictures as your judge as grading is subjective. Inventory: 63.2 Notes: Eupolemos (Eupolemus) was one of the generals of the Macedonian King Cassander. He was sent by Cassander in 314 BC to invade Caria, but was surprised and taken prisoner by Ptolemy, a general who commanded that province for Antigonus. He must have been liberated again directly, as the next year (313 BC) we find him commanding the forces left by Cassander in Greece, when he moved northward against Antigonus.
