About this listen
The first episode, in two parts, examines the famous Naxos coin from an artistic perspective. By exploring the coin's subjects, style, composition and engraver, Tim starts to answer the question why some consider it a numismatic masterpiece. As we shall hear in subsequent episodes, the Naxos coin is so highly prized that it has taken pride of place in the world's great public and private collections, and hammers for eye-watering sums when one comes to auction.
What makes this coin so special, and what does that tell us about those who produced it and those who have collected it?
