ELEPHANT MEDALLIONS

Last week I discussed the group of "twenty gold niketeria
reportedly found at Aboukir in 1902 have been the subject
of intense debate." One of these is the "Elephant Medallion,"
the subject of a recent book. I asked: "Where are the
medallions today, especially the elephant medallion? Where
does the controversy stand today? "

elephant dekadrachm: image

The silkroad site also links to a British Museum web page
on the subject. I'd give you the URL, but it is too long!
[I've shortened it! -Editor] British Museum

Pages 832-3 of the Historia Numorum mention the elephant
medallion (no photo): Medallin  "
