Frank J. N o v a k , M . D .

1. SPAIN, Bcligion. Circa 2M-154 BC. Pc, As (8.06 gm). Beardless male head right / Horseman galloping right with spear. Calico 133; Heiss 177,1. EF, black-green patina. (S250)

It is with great pleasure that Classical Numismatic Group, Inc., in conjunction with Frank L. Kovacs of San Mateo, California, present the collection of ancient coins formed by Or. Frank Novak. Dr. Novak's interest in ancient coins began in 1960 in anticipation of a trip to Greece and Italy. In an effort to obtain tangible mementos of the historic sites he was about to see, Dr. Novak wrote to several dealers in ancient coins. As a beginner who owned not a single coin, he found the responses to his inquiries sparse. Among those dealers who were kind enough to return his letters were Santamaria in Rome, M端nzen & Medaillen in Basel, and Edward Gans in Berkeley, California. With Gans close enough to visit on a regular basis, he quickly became an important influence in Dr. Novak's new found collecting interests, supplying the majority of the coins in the collection.

2. BilbUis. Circa 120-30 BC /E28mm (15.40 gm). Beardless male head right with necklace; dolphin before / Horse running right with rider carrying spear. Burgos 177; SNG Copenhagen 358. VF+, dark green patina with touches of red. (S125)

The collection itself is a reflection of Dr. Novak's interest in history. Each coin was acquired for the story it told of its place in the history and geography of the ancient world. As a natural adjunct to the collection, Dr. Novak built a fine and extensive numismatic library which contains many important first editions as well as long runs of auction and price lists which he personally bound. Dr. Novak's library will be featured in Classical Numismatic Group's December book sale. Many of the coins have interesting pedigrees which are noted insofar as they have been preserved on the tickets.

3. Celsa. Circa 204-154 BC. Ai As (16.35 gm). Beardless male head right, three dolphins around / Horseman right holding palm. Calico 409. Good VF, black-green patina. ($300)

Dr. Novak was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois in 1920. A graduate of Northwestern University (1938-1942), he went on to Northwestern University Medical School (1942-1945). He served his internship at Cook County Hospital in Chicago and his residency in the University of Illinois Research and Educational Hospitals in otolaryngology. 4. Orosis. Circa 204-154 BC. /E As (11.01 gm). Beardless male head right, three dolphins around / Horseman galloping right with spear. Calico 1012; Heiss 189,1. EF, black-green patina. Scarce. ($300)

After a brief tour as a Captain in the Army Medical Corps (19461948), Dr. Novak went into private practice in Chicago from 1948 to 1950. In 1950 he moved to California where he joined the Menlo Medical Clinic (Menlo Park) where he practiced until his retirement in 1988. During this period, he served as President of the San Mateo County Medical Society (1961), and Professor of Surgery at Stanford University Medical School (1970-1988), now Emeritus. Frank Novak and his wife Elizabeth Jean have two children, Frank J. and Mary Elizabeth.

5. Titiacos. Circa 204-154 BC. JE As (10.09 gm). Bearded male head right / Horseman galloping right with spear. Calico 1193; Heiss 235,2/3. EF, black-green patina. Scarce. ($300)

Dr. Novak's other interests include woodworking books and bookbinding. In addition, he has served as Chairman of the Associates of the Stanford University Libraries (1988-1990). Dr. Novak still collects coins and paper money of Tonga, and coins of other ancient and modern areas of special interest.

ΒΥΖΑΝΉΝΕ

Curtis is the only published example of this type and he wrote thefollowingabout this rarity: "During the final year of mintage of the fiduciary Alexandrian coinage of the tetrarchy, a few extremely rare 'mules' of two obverses seem to have been struck. A tetradrachm struck from obverse dies of Diocletian and Maximian is listed as Dattari 5618 ,and appears tobe duplicated by a specimen in the Kaiser-Friedrich Museum of Berlin. Unfortunately, the relative die positions were not published for eithercoin. The author's tetradrachm, listed below, combines obverse dies of Maximian and Galerius (a very peculiar pairing).

English and Scottish coins display exceptional design work during the fifty-eight years that fames ruled first Scotland (1567-1603) and then Scotland and England (1603-1625). The design was adapted from an earlier Scottish issue, the lion noble (Seaby5453), and is perhaps the most artistic coin in the normally repetitive English hammered series. James was the first British monarch to use the titie MAC BRIT (Magnae Britanniae - 'King of Great Britain'). Unfortunately, this type was such a drastic departure from previous gold designs, that it found limited acceptance m the trade. This piece is worthy of the finest collection. 1672. Charles 1.1642.
