Wonderful Greek (Istros, Thrace) drachm of approximately 18MM, made between 400-350BC. The obverse, facing up, depicts two male heads facing forward, the left inverted. They have variously been described as representing Castor & Pollux, day & night, sun & moon and even the twin sources (of legend) of the Danube. The reverse, facing down, shows a sea eagle standing on a dolphin. It is set in a modern 14K mounting, size 10 1/2, suitable for a man or a bold ring for a woman. It weighs 14.3 grams.
