Ancient Greek Illyria, Dyrrhachion AR Drachm Magistrate Xenon, ca. 229–100 BC. - Very Fine Scott #571 1880/79-O Micro O Morgan Dollar13. 6mm 3. 38g Obverse: (Xenon) over Cow with suckling calf. Reverse: YM (see note) around double stellate within square. *Note: The YM vs YP discrepancy is almost certainly a die blunder. Every other aspect of the coin rings too true to be either a contemporary (tribal) forgery or a modern counterfeit. While die blunders are certainly known to have occurred on Dyrrhacchion conage, I could find no reference for this particular error.
