Martin Rowe : The following type of Aradian bronze have never been documented before and are extremely rare, to my knowledge only two survive to date. In my humble opinion, i believe it to be yet another defiant attempt by the Aradians to supply the market place with further types of bronze denominations. The first is in my collection and second belongs to the Bibliothèque nationale de France. Both have a weight equivalent to that of 1/6 staters and date from between 348-339 B.C. I have split them into two distinctive groups, although similar, they do not share the same dies. The iconography of this type still have archaic style busts, but have started to show early signs of Greek influence. There isn’t any trace of silver, these coins were struck purely in bronze.
