Here is this estate fresh ancient Sicilian coin. This ancient silver coin is from approximately 466-405 B. It has Arethusa with dolphins around her on one side. On the reverse it features Nike flying right over a charioteer driving a quadriga (a chariot drawn by four horses). I acquired this from an estate.
