Tetradrachms were minted by hammering designs onto heated planchets using iron dies that were chiseled by hand. While many designs were featured on the Tetradrachm, the most well-known is the Athenian Tetradrachm. These coins displayed Athena in right-profile relief on the obverse and the Athenian Owl on the reverse.PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONSMetals Purity.999ProducerSilverTowneDiameter33.6 mmConditionNewEdge StyleSmoothProduct SeriesAncient CoinsCertificate of AuthenticityNoPackagingLeather PouchMetal Content1 Troy OunceYearN/APackaging Dimensions4.2 x 3.6 x 0.4 Payment is due within 48 hours.
